I planned on going out, but have been in bed since I got back from Glasgow. Bug iv been battling all week seems to be winning

With HJ busy all day with a meeting, I was left to my own devices ... went out for a wee ride to East and Midlothian
Musselburgh - Longniddry - Macmerry - Pencaitland - Pathead - Ford - Edgehead - Dalkeith
There were wee lambs in the fields, daffodils on all the verges, and lots of flowers and greenery on the early bushes and trees - spring is definitely here now . The Forth was almost flat calm , something I hadn't seen in a while. I tried a few new (to me) roads, found a bakery in Pathead that does very nice scones. I was getting very hungry by that stage and still had a few wee hills to climb. I got soaked during the middle bit of the ride, but was dried out again by the time I got home, after 58k in total.

@Louch - beware they Glesca bugs - they don't 'approve' of anything west of Shotts ...

Did a quick ride round the Dalmeny Estate and down'n'up Hawe's Brae late am/early pm as I understood I had to be back by 1230; 40k and a few wee inclines to keep me honest. ...
A little rain early on, then dry for the rest - and we've had no rain this arvo here in Trinity ...

Fife has re-appeared, as has the Castle - time for whoever took them to own up ..

I need a bike ride today, I don't care about the weather.

The hills of Arran are calling to me. They say "Ed, you are fat and unfit, I bet you can't get over any of us! HA HA HA!"
Man, I hate those guys.

I'm off from next Friday for 10 day if you fancied a day over there

Sounds good, but I've already set up the Garmin, done my stretches and will be leaving shortly... I'll be on the 8:40 train from Glasgow Central to Ardrossan. (although I'll be getting on at Paisley because I'm crazy, yo)

 

[Louch]

I'm so jealous

 

[Edwardoka]

It takes you more than 5 minutes to put your bike on your car and all your cycling stuff in a backpack?

(ferry leaves at 9:45, just saying )

 

[Louch]

I know when it goes, sadly will miss this time

Still feeling poorly?

Have a nice ride, @Edwardoka!
I'm off to East Lothian again, on EdFoC Night Ride business
May or may not get soaked ...

Feeling better thanks, just too short notice to fuel up and drive across. Will spend the day gutted I ain't there

I'm just up the road from Ardrossan, and in fact I'm looking over towards Arran as I type. Hope you've brought your wet weather gear . Bit blowy from the south too, so go clockwise . Enjoy the day, it's to dry up in the afternoon!
