duncan thomson

elder son going off to uni, so looking for a serviceable bike, mtb, hybrid or road bike. Preferably not a looker though anyone got something lurking at the back of the shed, a bit unloved, behind the carbon, disc wheeled, Di2 beauties. Needing a new home, will get used but hopefully not abused cheers duncan

Stuart, Good to hear there is an order for more hoodies. I have an old one that is on its last legs. I think we got some jets hoodies at the same time as the adult ones. Do you think it would be possible to do this again? Would need a change of the lettering on the back and different sizes but otherwise the same. duncan

Is it 7:15 for 7:30 off? Probably a couple of jets keen to come along. Will confirm thanks duncan

I think there should be a few johnstone Jets going over. I think it clashes with youth track champs and sxc race so fewer than usually racing but you won’t be only one in blue and yellow

Jamie Thomson a Jet will be along. I can be a holder

are jets allowed to do this?

great day on sunday, four jets in u14 and u16. Cedric had a great race in the elites , 26th, one behind Gary McDonald and ahead of David Lines, to be fifth Scottish based rider (I think). Certainly seemed fast on his tyres. Chapeau

BRILLIANT!

hoping to manage along for this sorry, double booked duncan

i was great* for the first third of a lap, then squirrely rear tyre, rapidly progressing to flat, shouldered bike and had the field go past. So much for tubs * for great, read not last!

Disc or canti brakes? Duncan

weather in Lochcarron today, windy, westerly with occasional rain. Didn't see the peloton coming through though, hope all well duncan

Working too, go on though!

top tip: at plean I tried cunning trick to free the mud by doing stylish bunny hop. It worked a treat. All the mud shifted from the forks and immediately jammed the front brake, I went AoverT and ended up on my head, in the very soft mud. the top tip is- don't do that, but I suspect everyone else knew that anyway. Ah well, learn from your mistakes

I should be there but I think family stuff is going to get in my way. Pleas about possible podiums at scottish champs seem to have fallen on deaf ears. What can you do?

Yup, amazing innit'

done

Ha. 42nd awesome auld git for me. Actually got some points. Waiting for the Scottish cycling call up. Great day. Loads of wheelers jerseys spread all over the course. Some upright. Plean next 😃

Working Saturday. Planning on sitting down whole day to protect the good sensations that took me to top 85 in fife. Glorious.

personal highlight: riding the bridge climb AND then passing McLean until out of sight of Son number 2, when I let Alan past and then almost threw up

first cyclocross race for ages, loved it. dead slow though. onwards and upwards. Jamie said I was rubbish, he said it was a helpful comment. Just because he was 3rd in U12 doesn't mean he can slag off his old man. No, actually, it does

and Jet representation too

four for me please duncan

hopefully a rennkompressor track pump is there, I left it after rollers last thursday. just in case anyone wonders why it is there cheers duncan

I brought along a jet (u12, muddy smile) a jet washer (not petrol driven) a camera a hangover
