All noted Roberto. We know people have lots of other things going on. Hope to see you out on the road sometime.
-
I am working and can't attend ride but can you confirm that Amaretto will have PR on telly? just like the euro bars? If so then I'll be there. May I bagsy a team for £3 if there are any left in the hat. Anyway I know Kristoff will win cos he is a monster and it's flat.

Chaingang 4th April 6pm

Being dropped on cote de bishy is part of the fun. On the club runs and bogs bunches I have been variously dropped at: Inchinninan (puncture) Inchinnan(unfit) Inchinnan (chain drop/unfit) Bishy town (unfit/missed a turn/headwind) Bishy town (lights/unfit) and that's before I even get to the hill and excluding the times I have arrived late. But I think on club runs it would be nice to get everyone over Bishy hill. Hope to be out on Thursday when I will probably ignore my own suggestion and just smash it like everyone else. -
Thanks chaps. We have had an excellent time. Full reports to follow.

You can download free Shimano e-tube software to a laptop and plug it in for diagnostic check. I used it once and it correctly told me that a connection was loose.

Rannoch gravel bike party Friday 29th March 2019
Alan McLean replied to Alan McLean's topic in General
If riding gravel then ensure your bike is a specialised gravel bike with correct seat angle and chainstay length or you will die (or just bring an mtb) -
I have the day free. Need company 'cos will be mild headwind. Option 1: train from Bridge or Orchy to Rannoch, CX bike to Kingshouse, Glencoe ski base and whw return to BoO. One mile of pushing in the bogs by Loch Laidon, otherwise about 4 hours easy riding on good tracks. Option 2: train from Dumbarton to Rannoch, road bike to Loch Tay, Callendar, Aberfoyle, drymen, Dumbarton, 170k. Interesting down Glen Ogle track etc. but not really gravel PM for details, only 6 bike places on train, hurry

but I am clearly incapable of putting them on the site. If you send me an SAE I'll post you an 8mm movie roll of this modern magic. I'm just away to put another record on.

Good grief, there's even SRAM dancing GIFs, praise the Lord for the glory of the internet
-
Big thank you to everyone who made the effort to PM me/renew subs etc. It all helps clubrooms/forum etc.

Chung and are supreme athletes.Lake of Menteith to Top of the World in sun is outrageously lovely.
-
Hi, chung and I are heading north for food -based mellow ride tomorrow. South end of bridge 0930. Probably Drymen, Aberfoyle, maybe dukes, callendar. Return via Top of the World, crow, etc Summer bikes allowed because I want to try mine out. Coffee and food stop vital. Back at bridge about 2. Tel your partner you'll be back for late lunch. If more riders then Amaretto finish.
-
Not going. Don't wait for me. Enjoy.
-
Provisional 0830 bridge for me depending on whether there is lying slush/ice.

Hi I need help cleaning up our membership records. Most of the recent ex-members will receive a group email but I am posting here because I know some contact details are outdated. 1. If you have renewed membership and paid subs, great! Thank you! 2. If you have not renewed but would like to do so (before your forum access is cut off) then go here https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/club/subscriptions?club_id=589. PM me if any problems and we can arrange BACS/cheque/cash etc 3. If you have previously been a member and are still interested in the club and general riding/social but can't rejoin this year due to geography/work/circumstances then please PM/email me and I'll keep you on our books as a possible future member. 4. If you can't see yourself returning at all to the Wheelers then please PM/email me and I'll remove you completely from our records. Thanks very much Alan Membership Secy JWCC [email protected]

Do you not fancy a wee trip across the river?
-
No but they have pressure washers and large ornamental garden statues of animals so well on their way to most bizarre cyclocross parcours with cleaning kit.
-
They also have Hilti nail guns, pallets of oak boards, and 14000 Brazilian slates on online auction. Go see the website but lock your credit card away first.
