Next CC Ecosse Ride?

[Col5632]

Lets get something organised soon

Sounds like a plan, not been on my bike once this month yet

 

[JiMBR]

I'm still here, but I mostly just lurk...mwuhahaha.

 

[Scoosh]

Sleekitcollie is busy driving the lead vehicle for the Olympic torch relay
HonestMan1910 (is that really the year of his birth ) is more of a Facebooker**, I'm told
HLaB seems to be around but was supposed to be heading south ...
HJ is busy stirring things following up on the Pedal on Parliament ride (and doing a great job too )
Telemark is working too hard and assisting HJ to recover from some injuries

There are loads of newer people with whom I, for one, have never ridden. This is partly due to and partly due to .

We'll need to do TechMech's fabulous Perth Ride again - it's a lovely ride, not too far, not too hilly, sufficiently short for newbies, sufficiently long for older riders and all on lovely quiet roads, with a wee bit of good-quality cyclepath beside the river. There's even a pub stop - though cake is not as high on the list. Still - we can always keep seeking 'The Ride That Has It All' !


** why do people desert a perfectly good Forum and set up some modern, young person's "social media" thing ?
Social Media ??
UNSocial media .... <harumph>

Maybe get a new thread started and see if we can get interest for the Perth ride?

Might tack on to a Perth ride; nice lot of hills to take me out of my comfort zone.

I'm up for doing the Perth ride. It's 70 miles away but I could jump on a train up there.

Do a warm up ride there and a recovery ride back

70 miles there, 40 mile group ride and then 70 miles back. Not sure I'm up for 180 miles

If you are doing it (whoever's going), any chance it could be before 17th August? That's when the schools go back

Does anyone know if there's any bike hire there? Wouldn't mind a road bike
