gregbalden reacted to Alan McLean in Sun 12 Jan 2020 - Tour De Troon
Top organisation from Greg. Good run, my character was built on the Dundonald hill. Also very impressed by the speed we went through Irvine. No messing about with B roads, just straight through, it might catch on.

gregbalden got a reaction from James in Sun 12 Jan 2020 - Tour De Troon
8 men arrived at the clubhouse for the tour de Troon. Alan T, Alan McL, Tommy, James, Eric, David C, Iain C and myself.
Two departed at Stewarton, Eric and David with the remaining 6 carrying on until Troon. A good return leg with cross/tail wind and rain.
60 steady winter miles in the bag. A prime example of main bunch riding.

Iain C and Greg were tragically unfit but impressed they got round manfully with little complaint.
Charlie and McT were putting the power down for the 30 signs but suspect they had been tapering...
Nice ride. Cheers.

gregbalden reacted to AlanT in Boxing Day whole club run
Great run out today. Turned out the BBC lied to us about the weather, as it was dry but cold. Not a huge number of riders out, around 14, which splintered a bit before Bishopton, but the rest of the run was steady and pretty sedate. Refreshments at amaretto's were very welcome.

gregbalden got a reaction from stuart10ant in Christmas Eve Canter
Folks,
Myself, Stuart and Lorne are planning a ride in the direction of Helensburgh.
Ill probably peel off at Sinclair St, however I believe there is appetite for Glen fruin.
9am clubrooms all welcome. Regular pace, habble at the known habble points.
This is a direct substitute for Turbo.
