I'm beginning to think it was a stupid idea

[ColinJ]

I didn't: no way there are 2 Stus (Stews???) on CC scared of Glasgow's Southside roads
Jokes aside, I am willing to coach him for a bit, if he's willing.

Yes, that would be a bit of a memory jogger. I would certainly remember if somebody from this valley came on and posted about the local traffic. I do take more notice of new members from Yorkshire and Lancashire because I am more likely to encounter them at some point.

Same here, Glasgow is not that big.
I can ride from my bit to Stu's bit in about 15 min. Actually I often do, as I've got friends in the area.
Maybe I've already met him ... he in his car

As others are saying, find yourself some quiet routes and get used to everything.

Did we not have this conversation before?
So you never sold it?
Well done
Wanna come with us girls, easy beginners rides around Glasgow?
I am not kidding, you're welcome if you want.
I've got some holidays coming up, could coach you around the south side, show you the quiet roads.

Pm'd you

Ah - I forgot it was that Stu!

Aye it's me


I tried to get out tonight but didnt, I'll try for tomorrow night if the rain goes off

Isn't it? I always thought it was a big city!

Ok, not as big as London or Birmingham, but certainly at least comparable in size to Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol etc.

Don't think so: even at my speed, you can cycle from one outskirt to the opposite one in about 1 hour.
All the major bits are within a 10 mile radius.
