Do they let fuzzy headed mountain bikers do these road events? Looks well good.

We will sneak you in under the cover of Lycra

Given how fast you were on the Arran ride, I'd like to see them stop you (and wouldn't like to see you on a road bike)

He was telling us Saturday he has built one ....

The 100 isn't overly hilly but there are 2 or 3 hills of note and it's quite rolling . It is not as flat as the 50 but it's not like riding Kinross sportive for example.

Easy stuff for the CC Ecosse boys.

I'm pretty sure team Cyclechat are screwed though.

I would do it but only if it went UP the hill at aberfeldy

Signed up for the 100 anyways, if it needs to be a roadbike I will just stick some curly bits on to my handlebars and hope none notices.
Sorry Ed I'm team CC Ecosse as well, all the cool kids are doing it .

"CC Ecosse" sounds like a bunch of namby pambies if you ask me

I've always maintained that the 50 is one of the flattest rides one can get in Scotland. As has been said, only 1 wee incline - the slope out of Dunkeld past the golf course.

It's an ideal route for @Pat "5mph" and her Belles. I was intending to do it this year but they 'require' helmets to be worn and helmet + headrest on 'bent = ... and by then I'd lost a bunch of mojo ...

Anyone found it yet, please ?

Enter the 100 miler, you'll soon recover it with that on the horizon...

I remember seeing a photo of a rider last year not wearing a helmet

It really is the flattest 50!! My club mate rode the best time last year with an average speed of 22mph. He's no slouch but that speed speaks volumes.
