Irn-Bru? Scottish Blethering Thread

[Col5632]

Actually I find getting to the cake stop the worst bit - you've done all the hard work by then, the rest you are heading home (well unless you are @Harry_Palmer79 and decide to headbutt a bog at 50mph...)

That hill is a real killer though

That bog had it coming!

Aye, you showed it!

Not a killer, just a grind.

Not a killer, just a grind.

Whatever you do, don't look up!

*looks up and despairs*

 

[Fubar]

Ah but I hadn't done it at that point - and it was a loooooong time ago...

 

[Col5632]

@Fubar is now a cycling god, no hill is too much

 

[Scoosh]

No @Fubar is a man who knows how to pace himself - it comes with age** and experience, young man !




**how our OMIL managed to get all the experience without the age ... answers on a postcard, please ...

Good wee cycle over Fife way tonight, struggled to guess what way the wind was blowing, starting to feel the power coming back into the legs

After 4 visits I have to disagree with the honorable gentleman re mrs machrie bay. 224 miles punctuated by her loveliness. Alas though @Col5632 being a master Facebook stalker showing she is already eloped, my dreams of a meaningful mid ride relationship are forever in tatters.

Winter wails for summer... fails?

I'll be doing miles, just not miles truncated by 3 hours of travel each way

I've only been to Arran once, and went straight over the String Road.
You youngsters need to put some Cyclechat times on that Strava segment to inspire me to go back once I lose my 'title' - am currently placed 1st (out of er... 1 ).

These are the bits with which I am currently struggling .

Maybe if I just did some more riding ... up something rather than just along it .

[can one go along a hill ? ]

Hardly, they just seem a bit easier than they used to...

Modesty ill becomes you
