CC Ecosse RV cycle ( # 2)

[Telemark]

You lot have been busy over the last couple of days, pages & pages to catch up on .

Really looking forward to this, the forecast looks dry for the next few days including the weekend, it may be a bit breezy through .

Might see some of you on the way, if the Milnathort ride is anything to go by - it seems you can't hide from CC Ecosse once you're "marked"

Hmmmm not sure, have never cycled that route before, I wonder maybe it would take 45 minutes or so from that McDonalds? So the MacDonalds at the FRB at 11am? Maybe 11.45am at Winchburgh? Does that sound realistic?

Jane, I'd recommend starting at Dalmeny/Sth Q'ferry station, parking in their large car park. From there, it's much easier/safer on to the Kirkliston - Winchburgh etc road.

sorry but SWMBO has got me booked to go Christmas shopping in Perth on Saturday. Will have to wait till the next one, have a good one guys (and gals )

 

[Jane Smart]

Scoosh, I don't drive in Edinburgh ( or near it sorry ) so will just have to cycle from the house and make my way there from here

Thanks for the advice though

Wow, a month ago you wouldn't cycle on the road Jane, now you don't want to drive on it! Way to go....

Changed days HJ eh??

I am pretty sure ( she says ) Scoosh, that the route I am taking over the FRB and then turning left on a B road not far past MacDonalds, will bring me on the same road you are talking about from Dalmeny Station.

Time will tell, I have your mobile number so if I get lost, I will phone you

I am very impressed Jane, you are an inspiration to us all

 

[Telemark]

just gone back a few pages to dig out all the details ...

Saturday 28th November

Jane, would you mind editing your original post (Page 1) and adding the details, so everybody can find it easily? Many thanks!
Only 2 nights to sleep ...

I'll have to miss out on this one again due to family commitments.

I hope the weather stays OK for you all.

It's been such a miserable spell of weather. That and busy weekends means it's over 2 weeks now since i was last out on the bike

Sorry to hear that Seamab.

Oh I was in Dollar last Saturday with dunfermline cycle club, they do a cafe run every Saturday there from dunfermline

 

[Scoosh]

Right Folks, I did a quick check run to the Park today and took the precaution of booking a table for 12, from 1145 (under the CycleChat name, of course). They can do that but will need the table from 1345, so we'll need to sook oor soop/ scoff oor cake in 2 hrs. Can this be done ?

It was a lovely sunny run today, into the wind on the way there (avg sp 21.98kph) and with the wind on the way back - avg sp 29.89 . If I had known it was that close, I'd have pushed it a bit

So we'll see youse all ramorra - and those who are unable to make it - we'll have a bite/slice of cake for you

Scooshy you are a darling thanks for doing that

Ooooh I am looking forward to tomorrow I got my CC jersey today, so I will wear it with pride
