Withdrawal Symptoms

[D-Rider]

Haven't been able to commute by bike for the last week because I'm working further away. It appears the cycling bug has bitten because I really miss it... I'm jealous of all the cyclists I see en route (even the poor sod battling the wind on the Forth Bridge tonight).

Going to have to go for a wee ride at the weekend I think!

I know how you feel, I hate taking the Bus. I came across the FRB at about 10pm last night but the wind was only 19mph then (38mph gusts) I would have hated to be there today.
If you fancy a wee ride on Sunday some of us are of to Linlithgow for a ride (CC Central Scotland Forum Ride).

Aye, I've been lurking in that thread.

I'm tempted but don't think I'll be able to keep up with you guys.

It's not a race - we all generally wait (or at least we do on the Manchester/Pennine's bunch... it's a chance to socialise...

The Scottish rides are the same people tend to wait.

OK, I'm suitably encouraged... will glance through the thread again....

Bitten....you got the bug...go for it........it's a massive encouragement....

Not being funny, but lots of folk on here don't have time for a club - I used to be a Club Treasurer/Secretary - it's hard work for just 20 or so folk..... I'd love to be in a club now as I'm fit, but I can't give the time.....this is where CC comes in.... we have a massive mixed bunch of folk, so what... let's go for a ride......

Lots just commute only, lot's just do 'rides/training', a fair few race......, - so a big variety.....

There is no pressure....if you turn up, you'll be looked after. !!

Take a chance, my first outing, on a hybrid with 4 stone of excess lard to haul up the hills. Remember, it's the man not the machine that matters.

I would come along to one of these, but you always seem to pick the weekend I am working
















Well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. It's nothing to do with being a lazy lardarse that would rather lay in bed (Am I sounding a bit defensive here?)
