Only a certain few will appreciate my last comment 🤮
 

Jan,
Warlock road and Corsliehill Road are both great wee lanes to ride on..the part of Corsliehill Rd to the east of where you've marked it on the map has all been resurfaced and leads into Houston village missing out the main (sort of) road...

Great pics Gerard 👌

Don’t know how to do this, but if you do find out I’ll be very interested to learn how.

Should work, although i've not tried it with komoot.
There is also a manual way to do it too - download the gpx file, connect garmin to computer then drag and drop the file into a folder called 'new files'. Disconnect garmin then next time you turn it on the route should appear under courses.
 
 

Cracking advert from the Italian TV channel Rai for the upcoming Giro
 

Hoping to be out this week.. 

That makes it a fast course getting the draft from the fast cars 

Thanks, I had no transport to travel to Ardrossan for the 7am ferry and didn't have a booking for the next ferry, so wouldn't be guaranteed a place on that.  So planned to leave the house at 5am at a nice gentle pace to get there for about 6.30 and get on ferry.  Trouble was, I woke at 4am to get ready and get a massive bowl of porridge down me, heard the rain outside so took one look at the rain radar and realised it was waaay to hazardous to get to Ardrossan in the torrential rain (attached screenshot - the yellow and red stuff was heading straight across my route), so it never happened.  Rain wouldn't have gone off til about 8am and that appears to have been what happened so glad I put it off.

Arran will always be there, I'll hopefully get this done by the time the timetables change in the autumn lol.

thanks Darryl,
thats encouraging... at the moment the option is only available for a 1 x groupset, so the front chainging wouldnt be an issue.. all said, i'd rather have a 2 x groupset, so am gonna email them to see of its possible.... hope your're having a great holiday

If the JWCC contingent grows I'll no doubt see yous up there 🙂

2 riders today:
Me 16:47 (another PB)
Colin 17:20 

Yes I am that mystery wheeler !

I thought you were talking about @XXX and @Charlie p

Two points
1. only you would have a full length mirror 😉
2. tidy that cabling 

That’s a real departure for you 😉

unfortunately my wife is having her 50th birthday celebrations this weekend, so i will be mostly drinking beer, wine and other stuff 🍺🍺

Doubt I’ll be out. Getting up in middle of night to watch The Big Dosser fighting 🥊
likely go back to bed after then out at lunchtime when it’s sunny.
hope you get soaked 😎

Hoping to catch the 9.30 bunch at Bishy Hill 10'ish, having a wee child free afternoon /evening, so enjoying the local hostelries, but planning to use some willpower at some point 🤭

Myself, Darryl, Tommy, Iain McT, Paul McD and Ian Archibald has an invigorating spin in storm Dennis, (clubrooms/ Bishopton/ Langbank/ Clune/ the wall and back to Kilmacolm for coffee! Tough winds but Good to get outside and stayed dry!!

PS the descent to Bedoin is a cracker. Smooth tar, flowy corners, fast fast fast. 

Echo what Billy says. The Bedoin route is the classic one, road from Sault is longer and easier, and the road from Maulecene is busy. 
Some good bars in Bedoin too. 

Mine is convincing. Not like his dead ferret effort.

Pleasant tour of the shire today with Ian and Alan. Coffee at Kilmacolm and then home. Not bad considering the rain earlier.

Will leave Bishy at 11 and head up Georgetown, catch youse on the road...
