Just been told it is the following week I go on holiday so I am in. Tom

Thanks Billy

Enjoyed it last year. Unfortunately (?) I am sunning it in France that week. Tom

Richard OK two bikes it is. Guys thanks for the links and the debate. Billy far better than pictures!! See you Tuesday. Tom

2012 for me too. Also gives plenty of time for training!! Tom

I'm confirmed to barraks until next week. I think another term is parenting! Tom

I am keen to give this a go and there was talk on Tuesday night about arranging a practice session fairly soon. Having one more space on my garage wall (hmmm ........could need a garage extension soon), I was thinking about buying a track bike that might double as a fixie for road use. Thing is I know less about this than road bikes so any advice on sizing, frame types etc would be gratefully received. Tom

Unlucky James!! Hope it mends quickly. Tom

I am looking for a vintage Campag chainweel and cranks for rebuilding my Flying Scot (ca 1953). I have been scouring the internet for ages but to no avail. Looking for something which will most likley not be the same era but even 70s or 80s considered. Could anyone offer any suggestions? Tom

Ben Just post the times. I have not seen so many riders before on the Georgetown, so for one experience timekeeper it would have been extremely difficult if not impossible so frankly in the words of others don't sweat! Chapeau for volunteering in the first place. Tom

Travelling to Germany that day so won't be able to make it. Somebody stand me a Leffe brown for Jim!! Tom

Very sad news. I only met Jim a few times but was fortunate enough to be in Flanders with him. A real gent and entertaining too. I fondly recall his tale of dropping Lance Armstrong on the Braes RIP Jim with heartfelt condolences to his family. Tom

I can't manage this week. Tom

Heidi is supposed to do a long run but is wavering. If she decides not to I'll be out. If I am not at the bridge don't wait. Tom

Guys What time at the bridge? Could be tempted not to open more wine..... Tom

I'll be there as far as the legs will keep up. Tom

Ben Very impressive indeed and then I remember it is only your 4th 10mile TT!!! Fantastic result. Tom

Is it well sign posted?

Great run guys but I have other commitments this weekend. Need a long ride - and soon! Tom

Weather permitting I'll be there. Otherwise it is time to climb Ventoux on the turbo again. Tom

MTT Nibali, Contador, Scarponi Tom

Ok so Tommy nae mates appears at the bus stop after fighting the gale down the Georgetown. Nobody about. Hung around till 7:05 and headed back home. I should have realised it was not a good night when a motor cyclist played shoot the cyclist with a loose panier on Bishopton hill! On the plus side I TT'd the second half on the Chocolate TT in 7:45 mins. Ok said gale was acting in my favour. But it still felt good! Tom
