Hey, I'm no Mod...

 

[Fubar]

As you've all already seen on the book of faces, things didn't quite go to plan this evening as my strategy for this evening didn't take Scotrail being rubbish into account.

Which ferry is it that people are aiming to get? I may have to make my own way to the yoof hostel...

You're just after a bit of Hare and Hounds, aren't you...?!?

Always a good idea to take shoes.

Never said you were, just that you usually call me names when I start typing

On the Triban that I will have serviced myself? More like the Hare and fat bloke stood by side of the road cursing his inadequacy when it comes to bike repair

To be fair most of what you type is incomprehensible to me, so I just resort to name calling.

There is a bike shop on Arran - Brodick Cycles - their number is 01770 302460, might be worth noting down somewhere

We eat at 8, if you're not there by then we might start to show a touch of concern...

Aren't there any bike shops in Dundee that can sell you cheap components then do a botch job fitting them??

S'ok, we'll send the Duracell Bunny (AKA @Pat "5mph") out to look for him.

@Fubar - Could we get the train from Waverley direct to Glasgow Central ?

I think they are:
Wav 0945 - Arr GC 1051
Wav 1000 - Arr GC 1104

Saves walking/ trying to cycle to Central from GQS.

I'll be at Wav by 0930 - and will need assistance getting my ticket - I'm a right numptie when it comes to ticket purchase from those funny machines

@Scoosh you haven't got your ticket yet????
I thought that's what better halves are for ... to organize unorganized other halves

Oddly enough, no, the Dundee bike shop doesn't keep a stock of frame-specific components which are specific to the frame. I know, it's ridiculous

It's what MSc student daughters are for - at least to direct you to redspottedhankie.

Should I be purchasing my ticket from Embra to Adrossan and Return ? @Fubar ?

Yes you should
can you not pass by Decathon in Embra, get @Edwardoka's bits?
