Scotland : Perthshire CC Ecosse RV Ride to Dollar - 30 Nov

[Telemark]

Telemark, is that your garden shed?

I wish ... it's an old hay shed on an alpine meadow at ~ 1600m near my parents' home. Getting there makes for a cracking bike ride (or ski tour or walk), with pretty special views

It couldn't be clearer...

Actually, you might want to ask a mod to edit the thread title and put the date in it ... there may be others who don't realise it's on the 30th

Moderators Hijack Alert!!! @Scoosh a cynical attempt has been made to hijack this thread and draw people away from my ride - I must protest!!!

Well now that the Edinburgh Tartan Ride has unfortunately been cancelled, I might find time to join your ride...

I've PM'd all those who expressed an interest, if anyone else is interested or hasn't received a PM and wants to come please make themselves known to me! Cheers, Mark

The current MetOffice predictions for Saturday aren't too bad
It'll probably feel a bit after the current tropical conditions ... supposedly not dipping below 9C overnight at Gogarbank

Fingers crossed I can join in, it all depends how Thursday and Friday go at work ...

@Fubar - when you say "the gates" of Pittencrieff Park, do you mean here?

Didn't know park was at the Met Office.....

 

[Telemark]

Thanks for spotting the mistake, oops

 

[mr messy]

Was wondering where park was.....doesn't appear to be on main road....could be interesting for some of us to find it!

 

[Col5632]

Helpfully there is atleast 3 different ways into the park and 2 have gates, i'm guessing mark means the gates at the bottom of high street which is bridge street, dunfermline

Terrible at using google maps to link into the forum

EDITED TO MAKE SENSE: I was actually meaning the gates at the bottom of Bridge Street opposite the Seven Kings Pub - as you have found out though there are several gates to the park, these are the closest to the parking if anyone was coming by car, though it might be simpler to meet at the Forth Road Bridge for those coming from the South @mr messy ? I'll update the PM to check where everyone who is coming wants to liaise. Thanks, Mark
