Scotland : Argyll, Isles & Loch Lomond CC Ecosse Loch Lomond ride - Sat January 18

[Rasmus]

Rule 9, too

Doesn't look too bad on the BBC just now. Rain showers, yes, but not too heavy or continuous.

See you in an hour or so.

You might just be lucky, and that big orange blob might pass you on the western side, my fingers are crossed for you ...

[Pat "5mph"]

I'm heading out now, need to see a pal first, see you all later

 

[mr messy]

Heading shortly too now that's been decided!

 

[tug benson]

Cold wet and windy in Alloa, hope the weather is better for you guys out there today

 

[Louch]

I got soaked enough going to wickes!

 

[phantasmagoriana]

In Balloch. Soaked and freezing!

 

[Telemark]

Hope the cafe is nice and toasty and serving hot drinks & soup (and cake of course)!
If it's any consolation, we got quite wet just going round the local shops by bike this morning ...

I'm afraid Pat and I went for the easy option and took the train back from Balloch. The boys opted to ride back...hope they aren't too cold!

 

[Rasmus]

Just home after an "interesting" day in the saddle.

Now to convince my toes that they are, in fact, still alive.

I would have joined you on the train if I'd been there ... looks like all survived at least, I suppose Rasmus would have mentioned if anybody had been left behind as an ice block or drowned in a puddle along the way ! I hope all fingers, toes etc. can be convinced they are still alive!

I look forward to an epic tale or two ...

Over in the east, the afternoon was mostly dry, so I went out for another shopping trolley ride, slightly the long way round ... now +7C and feeling quite warm .

[Louch]

Interesting.......do tell

According to the BBC, it was also supposed to be dry until mid-day last time I looked... ach, it's character building or so they say!

I can finally feel all my fingers and toes (just). My socks however will probably be dry by about Tuesday!

 

[Telemark]

Hope that was a cafe door and a wee draft coming in rather than a car door
