Anyone entered the CTT National 14th May?

Working

I can't ride tomorrow as I'm playing hockey.

Is the Whin the B788 road to Kilmacolm?

For anyone not sure of where the start is. The place on the right of this photo says boarding kennels.

I've done the NC500 but detoured slightly as there was a few places on the west coast I hadn't been to and wanted to see. Are you planning to cook/refuel in the youth hostels or eat out? There's a nice pub in Applecross if you haven't already been.

Interested too, hopefully I'm not working.

Cannot make next week as I am working. I have left 12 iced buns, 8 caramel shortcake squares, mini chocolate rolls, coconut things and some other chocolate square things. And there are 2 jars of chocolate biscuits. There are also 2 banquettes which just need 10 mins in the oven.

I will look after them

Will be at the club for 08:50 ish to open up, make soup etc.

Endura FS260 pro ladies shorts are good. Not sure if they make them in bibs too.

Saw this today and thought I would share in case anyone is interested in entering. *CRIT ON CAMPUS* Just a wee post to promote Crit on Campus in Stirling which is happening on the 2nd of April. The event organiser has contacted me and asked that I can try and spread the word. He is trying very hard to publicise the event and get as many women entering the race as possible, in the hope that in subsequent years the event will have gained enough popularity to put on separate E/1/2/3 and 3/4 races for the women, which would be the same as the men. Its clear that this is something that would appeal to many people and it would be great if we could get behind a local event and really show our support for women’s cycling and indeed the growth of the sport in general. I understand that many people are new to the sport and that racing with E/1/2/3/4 is extremely daunting. Crit on campus was my first ever race and it was a great experience. Yes I got dropped very early on in the race but there was a huge range of abilities within the race itself and so it allowed me to challenge myself with riders of my own ability and it also showed me where I wanted to be. The event organiser has also secured a discount for the Stirling Court Hotel and is happy for anyone who is interested in the event to contact him for the discount code. The rates are with the discount £49 for single occupancy and £55 for double occupancy. He has also stated that if they can fill the men and women and other senior races, the overall prize money for all events can be bumped up- keeping it equal of course. For anyone interested this is a great event and the atmosphere is always great which really spurs you on at a home event. Anyway, I have rambled on enough, but I just wanted to do my bit as many of the event organiser work tirelessly to provide us with exciting and new opportunities but for very little thanks in return. GO ON, GIVE IT A BASH… 😊 P.s I would appreciate if people would share this and try and help get the word out. Also the discount for rooms applies to men who wish to attend the race as well.

I will open up and bring soup.

Done

Pump them up to the max! It's more fun.

I get a newsletter from Lomo and they have a new bike bag. You might be able to attach to handlebar or saddle. http://www.ewetsuits.com/acatalog/dry-bike-tail-bag.html

Might be worth looking at the Ortlieb saddle bags. They have 3 sizes, I have the large 2.7 which has enough space for jacket, food, spares etc.

This run is on Sunday.

Ian, David & Eric today in Greenock. Then soon after Alan, Mia + 2 just passing Mcinroys point.

Me

I have sent you an invite via BC.

I like the idea. I would earn more points from timekeeping than riding! 😂

Hope you and bike are ok.

Should be there, working next day
