[Col5632]

Date is a provisional one at the moment More or less copied and pasted from the last thread

• The Ride: TechMech's fabulous Perth Ride (With Cake)
• Meeting Place: Statue in North Inch, Perth. Should be a photo here [Edit - not now, there ain't ! - but Googlemaps StreetView has a good one !]
• Recommended Parking: North Inch Community Centre - an gentle 5min ride from the Meeting Place
• Meeting Time: 1100 - this should give time for train travellers to ride to the start
• Distance: ~70km (45 miles)
• Terrain: mostly flat, some lumps, no real hills; cycle paths and quiet roads; excellent for new people, beginners; great for more experienced
• Ride Time: about 4hrs actual riding - more including stops
• Stops: Gloagburn Farm Shop (62km roughly)
• Pleasure Rating: High - this is a lovely ride

Remember the 3 key rules of CC Ecosse Forum Rides:​

1. NO ONE gets left behind
2. ANY BIKE will do
3. There WILL BE CAKE !

Count me in. I have a right elbow to scar for my grand slam on cc rides

 

[GBC]

Haven't cycled in that area since I was a boy in the 60's.........looking forward to it

 

[Harry_Palmer79]

I'd like to say I'm in, but need to figure out what to do about my bike first!

 

[Louch]

You don't have a choice, you are coming

 

[Pat "5mph"]

I would like to do this.
Any girls coming along? If not, can I bring a pal?
Don't wanna lumber you all with old slow me

 

[DelB]

I'll have to be a 'maybe' for this one, as the 3rd is the day after my 10th wedding anniversary and Mrs. B and I aren't yet sure if we're doing anything to celebrate the fact..............

I'm pretty sure that @Gee_Dee could be persuaded
