Is there a bike bus in Arran? Serious question!
Nah, it's served by normal Stagecoach buses. I've never seen a bike on one but I imagine they'd not leave someone stranded but I wouldn't want to depend on it.

Stopped, whilst he "recovered" & before being awakened by the driver!
It was awfully gallant of the bus driver to drive up the Bogoullie at 6mph to help me perpetrate the cover-up as well as arriving at Lochranza 20 minutes early!

Guys, the bird bath was all iced up this morning!
Then the sun came out, then around 5.30 I got caught in a mixed snow and hail storm

Not surprised, wind was very bitter, and looked like gritters had been out
Caught in a hailstorm on the bike (yes, I was actually riding 
) yesterday afternoon along the Silverknowes front.
Strong bitingly cold NW wind this day - though lovely and clear, bright and sunny - and warm (behind a pane of glass
).
It's my 'recovery day' today ...

Same happen to me. Left the house at 8.30 in sunshine and light winds. An hour later got soaked by a rain/sleet/snow shower and the wind had picked up the NW. Planned ride shelved for another so after a quick cafe stop in Strathaven it was back home with a tailwind. Looking out now its dull and grey.
Hoping the weather improves this week so that I get a few rides in before starting my new job a week tomorrow

Friday night about 5pm the heavens opened with hailstones, was really hard to try and keep the head up and actually see where I was going, thankfully it didn't last for very long

...and you have time to chat about it? I'm impressed.Finding it really hard to come to terms with the fact that I'm moving house tomorrow...
Oh how I wish that my problem was that I was so organised that I had time to chat!
Anyone on here can tell you that my preferred method for doing anything is wait until the very last microsecond and then panic
(I once rode to a CC tour on the wrong bike, arriving after dark while everyone else was sitting down to dinner 
)I'm following the 20/10 system (work for 20 minutes, rest for 10 minutes, then work on something else for 20 minutes etc) to stop me from having a fullblown meltdown
It seems to work for me because I get to see general progress rather than overwhelming myself with the volume of work still to be done.
