Anyone going or fancy meeting up for this?

 

[Louch]

Looks good, I'm off that week so wouldn't have any reason to to go

Meant to mention the Red Bull Hill Chasers on here, but forgot - thanks for the reminder, @edindave !
Just need to get tidied up and fed after @Col5632's Fife ride, if that gets shifted to the same weekend ....

I might come over for the red bull chasers

 

[Col5632]

I work every saturday night so i can't make the hill chasers

We'll need to set up our own CC Ecosse Hill Chasers !
Nothing as radical as Sherrifmuir, nor as long as Cleish ... about .5 Km and no more than 7-8% gradient - about the same as the Mound. It needs to be a quiet backroad, reasonable surface, very little traffic - and not too far away (ie probably not Arran ... )

@Col5632, @Telemark , @tug benson, @Rasmus, @Louch, @Brandane, @Cameronmu917772, @MikeW-71 .... for starters.
Now if it were a downhill - Scoosh and the 'bent !

I'm no hill climber, I can usually get up most hills but verrrryyy slowly
