Irn-Bru? Scottish Blethering Thread

[Fubar]

You can't (well I can't) take it easier in the wind cause you really do move nowhere then

Well, you CAN if you are not running late! The wind just encourages a slower pace. I take your point I'm just saying if your legs are tired a slow recovery ride is more beneficial than either racing around doing more damage to your muscles or doing nothing at all.

Just orders me a new frame, will hope it arrives so I can put it together, might go for a wee ride up to gladhouse if it doesn't.

Belles ride & shopping done, what a day and of course great company. Bit chilly to start with, Roseburn path thickly gritted so no danger of offs on ice (thank you Edinburgh council!), but frozen puddles filling some of the potholes through Dalmeny Estate ... plenty of space to weave between them, so all was well
We went half way across the bridge towards Fife to the highest point, for the views, but then turned back as the experience was severely diminished by the noise & fumes off the very busy road right next to us ... and we were hungry
The Rail Bridge cafe in South Queensferry is superb ... very tasty lentil soup with chunky bread and huge fresh fruit scones

Tomorrow's weather looks a bit different

Tomorrow's weather looks a bit different

Well, I had to change bikes in the morning, the ground was thick with ice, just as well I'd been too lazy to dismantle the ice bike.
Snow forecast for tomorrow!

Cycle path 76 is a complete joke. Thick mud path, then you enter a field, then you have to go through a 3 foot wide gap in trees. Completely unrideable.
