Being out here the Netherlands I had to purchase one of these bad boysI know that the Dutch are quite a permissive society but I don't recommend trying that here, you could get put on a list

Good News, CC Ecosse members ! 
Both @Edwardoka and @Harry_Palmer79 appear to be alive, well and still part of CC !!
How's the training going, Ed ?
Getting the miles in 
, getting practice at 'making do' when you've left something behind/something falls off/ bike needs serviced ? 
Still cycle-commuting, Ross ?
Good to see you arond ...

Ha no... This pug is not for turning (pedals)How's the training going, Ed ?
Did myself a mischief on the ICAM challenge (IT band), but even before that I wasn't getting out on the bike even a tenth as much as necessary.
At this rate Glasgow-Edinburgh-Glasgow over 5 days will be beyond me by the end of July... only self-delusion has stopped me from cancelling so far.
At low ebb, but I've survived worse!

Likewise... doing the commute sometimes, not quite in a regular routine but hopefully soon! I did do a few weeks of a boot-camp thingummy so hopefully not lost all my fitness
Looking forward to the night ride... just need to do a few longer rides so it's not too much of a shock to the system

@Edwardoka I think you can still do it.
Get your head in gear now, you'll be able to do LEL by end July.

Assuming you are referring to the EdFoC Original, rather then the Ride to the Sun - you'll be fine - it's not a quick ride and there are plenty of pauses and a good feed
in the middle ... somewhere or other ... 
Will be nice to see you again !

It is indeed the Edfoc ride
(I need to purchase a proper front light as the one I have at the moment is a tad weedy)In other news... my cycling shorts were worn for the first time this year
Thank you for the encouraging words, I wish I had your confidence in my ability
Your cycling ability is never in doubt @Edwardoka.
Sometimes your 'organisational' (the term is used in its loosest sense) ability, however ... 
Just get on and do it - you'll be fine ...

Stop this right now!(My shonky knee is proving to be a significant barrier to training, unfortunately
There are no barriers for a young, energetic chap like you: you can do it!
I appreciate the sentiment Patricia but I am genuinely injured at the moment

Must be something in the air - I've had a chesty cough/ sore throat over the w-e too, so not been able to recce ride the Top Secret EdFoC Night ride.
Drove round this arvo with Mrs S. We reckon it's a really nice route too - 'mainly flat, a few lumps, no real hills' ...
Carefully, you'll have people digging out maps and trying to work out the route... ;-)

Must admit it is a long time since I was last on here, just been too busy with organising Edinburgh greatest cycling festival, or should that just be Edinburgh greatest festival? ;-)
Hope to see loads of you there! Umm, Here!
