Future CC Central Scotland Forum Rides

[magnatom]

Sorry guys, I'm on holiday at the moment and my internet access is limited. I had a quick look and most of the routes north from where I am take in some significant hills. When I get back I'll see if I can come up with something a little more novice friendly.

Still ??

No worries, mags, enjoy your hols - we'll try to survive without you

2 bridges, don't know if you guys have done this before ?

Starting at South Queensferry, over the Forth Bridge and then along the north side of the Forth to Kincardine and crossing either the Kincardine Bridge or Clackmannanshire Bridge and then back down to South Queensferry, approx 44 miles if using the crossing at the new bridge.

Could I throw the Fife Flurry in as a rank outsider. Maybe a bit too far north and maybe be a few to many miles (62 / 100km) but if you can do PfS then this maybe of interest.

The two rides above and the Pollock one sound great. Are we still on for Saturday the 26th Sept? Do we need a separate poll? We all like a good poll...

I'm on away on holiday until the 2nd of October (Majorca...sun, sea, beer etc) but would be eager to join any rides after that.

One question...do you have to be on a road bike for the CC rides?

Not a requirement at all, there are a few folk on hybrids such as me! I'm guessing the October ride will be the 31st Oct or 1st Nov.

Bugger, I'd love to do that but we're at a wedding in Bristol the day before so there's no chance of getting back for it, why do I always seem to miss everything!?

 

[JiMBR]

I have an MTB though...

I did manage 3hrs 35mins (with a 30 min stop) on PfS.
As I had 5+ hrs in my head, I was pleased with the result.

Any bike will do for a CC ride, so long as you pedal it. Magnatom hasn't forgiven me yet for taking a CC ride along a forest road when he was on his brand new road bike... it wasn't that bad really I was on 25mm Gators pumped to 100 psi and was still able to average 15 mph on that section, the only time I could keep ahead of HLaB all day...

Can I second (or third) this one?

I don't suppose someone (Scoosh/Magnatom) wants to take control and pick a date/route? Time is strolling on...

Can we do it in October so that I've built up enough childcare goodwill before asking for the 'day off' again?

I'm sure we'll be doing another one in October - though 'I feel your pain' at (possibly) not being able to do this one
