Is it just me or is the UCI channel for tonight's cyclo-cross geo-blocked and not available in UK?

Given Cookson is UCI heid bummer you would think he would be at least assuring the country of his birth could actually see the thing or is it just my pathetic computer skills?

OK hopefully see you then....

Anybody getting ferry across on Saturday - if so what time?

Paul,

Would be really happy to do this Paul,but Tuesday's & Thursdays are usually a no go for me. Stupid hours, stupid commute and stupid mutt all interfere.

Hope you get the numbers.

Saturday plans now cancelled so any day for me.

Would like to try and get out but have plans on Saturday - will follow posts/changing forecast as the week progresses.

Looks like race entries now live....

Away for the weekend so average pace will be up.

The moor road is so passé these days ....

Aye later start suits me ...if not at club rooms will meet at top of bow field or thereabouts.

Hint...head towards bowfield.

Weather app looking accurate from my window....

I'll be using 28mm tyres and a cross bike but don't let that put you off...........

Billy,

Very keen to get out on a bunch run again but don't much fancy the route (also in current condition need bail out options).

How about a Bagel Basket run with a lot of variations from the norm, harnessing the spirit of Robert Frost it will involve some roads less travelled.

Will check back later in the week to see what is happening.

Cheers,

I hope to be there as long as Charlie promises to wait for me on the hills.

P.S. It is more scenic looking down into Irvine valley going the reverse route.

Hope to be there

Personally would give it a miss..great for cyclocross but no real advantages for road performance though this may not be true for carbon rims.

The comments regarding eliminating rim wear are valid and are the only real benefit that I can see but compatability issues may still exist i.e. thru axles and axle width I spent an absolute age tracking down a carbon cross frame with normal drop outs to allow me to run existing wheel sets.

Another solution to a problem that does'nt exist in my book.

I'm struggling for time so will be out on either Sat or Sun but not for an all day run.

Entries open on 1st June and, unlike me, go quick.........

Would post a link but can't figure it out, you can "google" it after you have searched for Elvanfoot.

Was good to get out with a group again even though I was popped a fair few times, it is a cracking route even though I chopped the windmill farm section to drumclog out to save my legs.

Excellent day.

Caught some of the road race as I headed home via stewarton....looked mighty tough, with a fully committed Paul McDonald on the nose of the 2nd group on the road.

Will probably be at howwood in the morn.

Billy, I don't feel your pain, but would agree that the success rate of the rides calendar is woeful. 

I am happy enough to ride at the weekend but I will be toiling at the back. 9 o'clock at the clubrooms - you in Billy?

As for the Erskine Bridge Wheelers ...away and boil your Pactimo shorts.

excellent, well done all.

Sounds good to me I will head out towards WK in the morn.

North Ayrshire - I know some roads round that way. Let us know where you are headed and we could meet on the road at some point.

Saturday.

Depends if your in a hurry?
