Hi everyone and thanks for the warm welcome. Pat, you're right about the hilly ride. I'd gone out the week before and did a section of the course between the A77 and Sorn. OMG! However, the section after the 2nd feed stop at Glespen was tougher. Mind you, I can chuckle about it now but there was a hill near Biggar that was brutal. Me and the pal I was with we're riding towards a corner. We turned said corner and this hill climb was all we could see in front of us, at a scary gradient. In unison we said "you've got to be ****in' kidding me".
