So 915 at the bottom of the Bowfield then

will join if someone could please clarify what the plan is. Happy to stick to original plan from Feb.
 
Any new/prospective members may be baffled by banter (I am) so please keep it short and clear.

The Erskine bridge wheelers will be more than happy to join you Davie on RTHðŸ‘
 
The Club run calender I believe was a success, sadly life gets in the way sometimes and folks cant make a weekend so you make do and mend!

I love a tranny route. I'll be out in my trannny gear

I'll be sure to pack my railcard on Sunday ðŸ‘

Sorry, will be nursing a hangover waiting for my transfer to Palma Airport...

Cracking day indeed. Cracking photo Richie!!
 
I particularly enjoyed chungs off the cuff lunch order " eh a couple of those pancakes please, thanks"
 
Waitress returns with 2 plates of pancakes covered in syrup....
 
" I only wanted one portion??..."
 
" you asked for two pancakes....."
 
😂 😂
 
Good day all round!

See you there chung, don't worry. I'm working late so might be a a bit late also.

Agreed, ðŸ‘, Eric??

Aberfoyle sounds good.
 
Half 8 bridge?

Solo 56 miles, tailwind blowing round the coast to Largs, then in my face with a vengeance up the Haylie and over the dams road, struggling to hold double figures at times.
Sitting outside at the bagel basket in bright, warm sunshine. Almost like summer.

MSR sounds fun. Sunshine and all that.
 
Also planning to ride the 160km Rvv with the youngest. He'll be 13 so high time for him to taste cobbles and mayo. May be some other Jets up for that too.

Couldnt face it last night, my commute home into that wind done me in, and when I walked into the kitchen and saw my dinner sitting on the plate and I knew there was a cold beer in the fridge I was done for Errr... ah fell aff ma bike ! 

or wires. Wires are good. You don't need batteries if you've got wires.

So the main bunch bottled it!! At least the intermediates managed 40+ miles!!!!! Kudos to Ian McG for having a go!

Decided to head to Aberfoyle as I needed to be in Killearn later anyway. Got as far as Drymen and could not feel my hands so decided to head for the in-laws earlier than planned, hot shower and chocolate button egg

Plan to be out

Yes for me & agree with McBride.

Hotel in San remo - right on coast near the centre - for 10 wheelers £196 a night(£20 each) buffet breakfast(might be extra) 
 
Has Wi-Fi and Fire Extinguisher

Have to agree with Greg. Cycling and jwcc should be for all, not just for the middle aged and middle class. It's bad that cycling has become the new golf, no need for jwcc to become one of those elitist type clubs. There's something romantic about the blood sweat and tears of nailing yourself on the bike, whether it be on mid week training runs, long hard Hilly club runs, challenging sportives or racing. It would be amazing to also do this abroad, pricing out fellow club m8s to amble around the country side to then retire to a king size duck feather duvet just seems wrong ... treat the wife/boyfriend whomever if that's your bag... hard days cycling, enjoy the beer, somewhere to rest the head, simple.
 
I'm laying it on a bit thick but you get the point

I'm interested, but if I go I'll be last
Minutr addition. 4 days would be good, but cheap.
 
It's a bunch of guys riding bikes and drinking beer, posh hotels are NOT needed. Hostel or any other sort of cheap hotel/apartment, I say! Cheap all the way....
 
Just my tuppence worth....

stayed in and watched telly. you are all mad.
