@Pat "5mph" I have the offer of a trailer that could fit possibly 6 bikes, plus I could get at least 2 in the car (but only 1 passenger!) so if I can negotiate to borrow it for the day and meet you guys in Glasgow somewhere would that solve the problem???

Fear not!
I've found a RED van plus man to take us there and back, he's an ex cyclist and bike mechanic to boot, might even come on the ride.
Only a fiver ahead, will also take 2 passengers.
I'm meeting him on Monday to finalize timings and meeting place.
@Gee_Dee you have a place, probably space for another 2 if needed.
I'm shortly going out for the day, meeting @Mad Doug Biker for lunch, then some of the Belles for rehearsing the weekend bike ride we are doing part of the Merchant City Festival this weekend.
Ciao!
I have no intention of riding back!Yes, it's only 100k, followed by a 70k forum ride, followed by 100k ride home

Ok, you have a space to come back in the RED van (thought a white van would be bad luck, ha ha!)

If i manage to make it along i'll be riding there and back. Easiest, flat(est) route from Glasgow is via Linlithgow, SQF, Milnathort then Perth. Going up via Stirling/Dunblane/Auchterader is too lumpy and time consuming.

I'm not 100% sure how my wrist is going to stand up to a 'long' ride at the moment, so I'm still more of a maybe... I should at least have my new bike by then (tonight hopefully!) so if there's still a space in the van for my bike closer to the day that would be great, but I wouldn't want to ask for a space if someone else can use it and is a 'definite' to go.
If anyone is riding the @glasgowjim way and wants/thinks they might need a lift from Liligow or FRB, I could have space for 2-3, depending on whether @Telemark and HJ are coming ...
