They have no choice, it's a CC Ecosse ride - it's in The Rules.

Very true Can't decide if i should go out with the club this weekend or just do my own thing

You joined DCC?

Not as such, went out last sat with them and was thinking about doing the same on sat

Surprised to see only 4 people wanting to do the longer route, hope you guys dont mind waiting for me

And then there were three....
I'm now no longer able to come. A new family committment has sprung up meaning i have to be in Perth on the Saturday afternoon.
I was really looking forward to this. Gutted to miss out. Just to add to the misery i've caught a really horrible cold which has had me off the bike for days and quite a few to come. Started the day after my climb up Gloom Hill!

Have a good ride and a cake for me.

Shall we start a book on how far round the island Jazloc's Triban lasts?

 

[ianjmcd]

if he cycles to addrossan he might be lucky to get it off the ferry the sea air will disintegrate it

I have just been it and done 50 miles today, and I'm worried re Arran. My average was about 12mph , and I don't want to be catching the group every 10 mins, or holding folk back like last time. If I can't get up to about 14 average before end of the month I will probably drop out.

The Motto on these rides is nobody gets left behind i certainly wont be any faster than you Louch so dont even think about dropping out

I assure you that this ride will be done at significantly less than 14mph, plus riding with others makes it easier to maintain a pace.

We have all day, and the good thing is there is a faster/harder ride for those that want it so no need to worry. I doubt I averaged more than 12 mph on my first CC Ecosse ride and no-one left me behind.
