CC Ecosse East

[Hobgoblin]

Hi All,

Just having a quick check of the Ecosse Informal Rides pages after a long absence. It seems a long while ago since my daughter and I ventured out to our first CC ride around the Forth. If the date fits in with other stuff, we could be up for a few miles soon. Having fat tyred bikes with lots of gears, I think hills would be okay, but either option sounds fine.

You have a geared bike ???

No excuse needed, mate, "just staying back to encourage the slower folk" has worked fine for HJ for every ride we've done IIRC

Alternatively, "saddle sores" is hard to disprove

I do remember a wee hill near Danskin where I tried to encourage one of the slower folk shame he couldn't keep up all the way to Gifford...

 

[HJ]

Polygraph? Torture? Sexual persuasion?

You've met Scooshie then...

Hobgoblin back . We'd been wondering where you and Hobgoblinette had gone !

What - no road bikes yet ? Thought they were on the Christmas lists - for last Chrimbo .

Would be great to see you and your daughter again.

Seamab will also be relieved

Oh Dear - though most of our rides tend to be on a Sunday, just to make getting to the start/going home again a bit more difficult if doing the train thing .... except when organise by Telemark

 

[TechMech]

Aye
