Irn-Bru? Scottish Blethering Thread

[Edwardoka]

It's no so much the going up its the coming down that would give me the fear.

It had a few bottom-clenching moments at times, yes. There is good reason why I am in position 1664/1755 on that descent.

Of course Fear is your middle name. Or is it Frederick?

Clearly my middle name is Horatio.

Best wishes,
Edgar H. Pugglesworth

You WANT rain? . You can get therapy for these types of desires, you know!
Anyway, me driving gives no guarantee of rain. That only applies to pastimes where I am exposed to the elements. The bicycle or it's motorised equivalent tend to guarantee a drenching .

I can cycle confidently in rain, and dress appropriately , ice not so much

The wife has changed shifts so even if I had changed my mind to go out it defo ain't happening now

Just as I pulled the kit out, snow started. Off to see creed instead. If my sacrifice isn't in this film, it's a massive opportunity missed

100k done, this ride had it all - icy roads, a puncture, snow falling, darkness descending, raptor spotting: gotta love January.

Well done @Fubar!
I did only 10 miles, could have done 50 easy, was having such fun, but was not equipped: had set out to go for lunch, they canceled when I was already in town, wrong time of day, wrong jacket and no water to stay out later
