The Saturday is cool with me as well, I was just thinking of those coming by car.

I've also just had a further thought, that there's always loads of spaces free at the top end of the Asda car park on the Dunkeld road. If you were to head in to Asda and then turn left as if you're entering McD's (but don't) and park in the bit at the top behind the flats.

I could meet those coming in by car there (as I've got to come this way anyway) and guide us in to meet those coming by train at the start of the North Inch next to Perth Bridge.

Just as an aside, I know it's unlikely to be this soon but this Saturday is out for me, any other is fine though through June and July (even August!)

Scoosh could put a poll (it has to be done by the person who started the thread), but suspect that scook94 is right and Perth would be the preferred route as it is easier to get to...
Could he indeed :ohmy:.
This assumes that he has the know-how ... which he doesn't :smile: - and from looking at the FAQ, it doesn't seem to show how one can add a poll retrospectively.

Now, if someone were to start another thread, with a poll (options to include Perth Saturday or Perth Sunday or Anywhere else Saturday or Anywhere else Anyotherday) I would be very happy :biggrin: [<-= Very Happy smilie ;)]

I managed to do it with the May Ride Thread after I had started it. You have to go to the top of the thread and select the Thread Tools menu, if you have started the thread the fourth item in the menu will be "Add a poll to this thread", but only if you have started the thread...

Simple really, it must have been other wise I wouldn't have been able to do it ;)

It's true - it can be done - and even by me :blush:

Your task, should you chose to undertake it, is to complete the poll before Sunday 28 June, so a decision can be made.

This poll will self destruct close in 12 days' time, which should be about Sunday 28 June, giving us a week's lead time for the currently proposed date of 4/5 July.

Happy Polling :biggrin:

I'm a bit confused :biggrin: (as usual). I quite like the idea of a ride in Perth beacause its easier to get to (thats about 75% new ground for me) I quite like Lanark too as thats 100% new ground for me. I'm happy however no matter what we decide.
That's what Option 5 is for - a HLaB special :blush:

Ok if I've done it right I've created one of those Doodle poll things to help us pick a date. I'll let you guys chose the date once everyone has added their availability. Hope it works...

linky...

Come on guys, more entries to the Doodle

SB, As i mentioned to you on the last CC ride i would love to do an event of this type, but it is just a bit far for me.

I am assuming you are talking about the travelling distance, 'cause not in a million years do I believe that you cannot storm around 100km and still have the energy to eat a bridie.

If you change you mind I would be happy to pick up and drop you off from Cupar, Leuchars or Dundee just drop me a PM if you take a mad turn nearer the time.

Fife Century Road Club also run Reliability Trials over various distance late in the season. I have just emailed the coordinator for a date.
 
I'll fill in the doodle when I get back to work next week. I have some Sunday work comiing up, so I'll need to check what is happening, and I am off on holiday this week.

Oh and I have this wee 100 mile ride to contend with first! :ohmy::biggrin:

Ok, I have just put myself on the Doodle but not 100% sure if I am feeling brave enough for this yet :rofl: I will see when a date is confirmed

Is there any way of seeing the route profile on the maps, I have an alergy to hills ;)
