Irn-Bru? Scottish Blethering Thread

[Col5632]

I'm already smashing PRs left right and centre, and since neither you nor @ShooglyDougie will tell me who your EPO supplier is, new wheels are the only way I can get faster in time for Saturday

We will be thinking of you

Shirley red ones would work best for you then!

These are technically red: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/fast-forward-f4r-carbon-tubular-240s-wheelset/

Although sod fixing a fairy visit on tubulars. Stitching and gluing, eh naw!

Carry spare tub like all the top old racers used to do

Can also put gunk in em too!

Gunking a tub would probably negate the effect of buying performance wheels in the first place

Just go here and make everything red, job done. Unfortunately no EPO I am just fortunately blessed with hills in every direction, gotta love Midlothian

Just subverted Scotrail by getting what appears to be the last bike reservation ticket for Friday ... by using the East Coast website

(It's the little victories in life...)

I get these fitted to my TCR at the end of the month

Got photobombed by Sean Kelly today. Then rode up an HC with him. Good times!

Signed up for the strathaven sportive in August again today. Great quiet route and cracking food stops.

Passed our very own @Col5632 tonight - good to see you mate! Sorry I didn't stop, had struggled up from Kelty into the headwind and wasn't about to turn back!

Guys and girls, I was thinking today .... I would love to do the Perth ride again!
Obviously, because I'm so slow, I cannot be the ride organizer/leader ... sooo ... sometime in June/July would be lovely, I think
Remember @Fubar, when you got lost, phoned me to ask for directions, like I'd ever been there before or something, I was riding on my own well behind following the Garmin, had to stop a random cyclist to tell you where I was
Great fun that ride!

Start a thread!

At least this time I won't have to ride 70 miles to the start

Anyway I didn't get lost, I went back looking for your van driver then got dropped!
