Is the big hill better too or from work I think I preferred it in the morning and downhill at night so you could get out of the city fast but I cant really compare having never been a south-sider (unless now south of the border counts )

Hills in the morning or evening are all the same to me. Although I do find I warm up quicker at the end of the day, having been up and about and active sat at a desk typing as opposed to asleep.

I dunno if Kevin commutes or is just in it for the fun? I wasn't even thinking about commuting - the opposite actually. I just find it a chore that I have to travel at least 10km in any direction to get out of city traffic - unless I go by boat

Not commuting at the moment but will do once I get my leg strength up and my lazy arse up from bed

Welcome Kevin, from another CC Ecosse member
Looking forward to meeting you on one of our rides, there are quite a few lined up at the moment!
In case you haven't found THE RULES yet, here they are:
1. Nobody will be left behind.
2. There WILL be cake.
3. Any bike will do (as long as it's in working order , but definitely no road-bike snobbery)

T

P.S. @edindave - you'll just have to get your priorities right and move somewhere more convenient

newbie here, cycling for too long to recount, recently went all 'chainstore' and bought a triban 7 (31/03/130) stuck 2.5k so far, some with the help of @DelB
Perth highland sportive at the weekend with some of you fellows, great day despite the early rain and ill never complain looking at a blonde german ladies posterior for a while, i think she turned dutch at one point but that might have been my imagination

looking round CC seems a nice place to be so hopefully ill be on here a bit more
