Irn-Bru? Scottish Blethering Thread

[Pat "5mph"]

Wild at about 5am this morning. I did think about th Stirling meet but
booked onto a flight at 13.30. If I was more active on cc I would probably have planned to stay over and joined you all.

Did you make it home ok?
One day I'm gonna bring a large group of Glasgow Belles on Bikes to Lewis

Eventually. Flybe put everyone up in the Holiday Inn and put on an extra flight at 13.30 today. Delayed but eventually took off at just after 3pm. 48hr round trip all for a 6hr meeting - island life.

Look forward to seeing a group up here. Will help out if I'm needed.

Not a day for the bike today, 6 miles done from the car garage on the hybrid, don't think I'll be doing the same tonight in 90mph winds

Rather perversely, I am looking forward to riding home tonight into that wind. I know I'll absolutely hate it, but will feel good if when I get back.

I've got my car to pick up from the garage and need to be there before they shut

Whatever you decide to do - Ride Safe, guys and it's not worth the risk ... car can wait (even if a big bit inconvenient) and Ed -... well don't do anything daft [ooops - too late .. ] ... err ... ca' canny, eh ?

Don't worry I won't be cycling back to the garage from work

Wimps. I did a metric century yesterday, and I'm off out on the bike again today, wind or no wind!

I don't think I'll have much option given a 60mph headwind!
Possibly will ride through the hills to escape the worst of it...

 

[Pat "5mph"]

I'm back shift again, soon setting out
Got a shiny cleaned bike, new pedals, cranked up cranks (there was a noise, discovered they were a bit loose) 2 big panniers full of stuff I don't really need, to weight me down
For a change I'm gonna wear my helmet, to much debris flying about

 

[Louch]

I am working from home today as heard bridge is closing due to wind. Anyone with me on Facebook will have seen the wheelie bins all over the street, one blew out across a car comIng up the road , so bigger cycling in that

Never mind that, get to higher ground (from http://earth.nullschool.net/ 's wave height visualisation)

Slates are rattlin'

I was hit by a flying snow ball on Saturday and today blowing about in the park with my wee sofie woof
