Billy, here is the original C11 route. http://www.mapmyride.com/route/gb/dunoo ... 6757351215 Cafe stop is Tignabruaich. Dont know if I'll make it tmw. Martin, C11 is the climb from Glendaruel over to Otter Ferry -together with the climbs at lLoch Striven and Tignabruaich it makes a decent work out. No cross or compact cahinsets !

Went out for cruise round by Balloch and Gartoharn. Unfortunately got caught by glasgow united bunch just before the climb to Queens View so I had to put in some effort.

Not going to make it Charlie. Out boozing till the early hours (dont you love teachers holidays) so don't want to get my ass kicked ! Going out for recovery ride.

Cheers guys. Tough shift for me today - great route though and some fabulous scenery which I had plenty of time to enjoy !

Was missing the rain - warmer and drier in the middle of a Sydney winter than it was here today ! BTW not been on a bike for 4 weeks now so no showing off on Dukes ! See you tmw.

Will be on North side of Bridge.

Cheers Colin, great ride again today and great craic. See you all in a few weeks.

It'll be a shame to miss it Billy but doing the Trossachs Ton.

Thanks Tony, great route, great cakes. Thanks also to Dennis for bringing Paul who was a great encouragement on the climbs !

Cheers Colin. Were some people racing up the hills ?

Eh, being from the other side I still don't get it - is it the roundabout at the end of the Georgetown ?

I'll be there Tony. Hope the weather is better than last time - and the turnout !

Billy, As variety is the spice etc a possible variation would be Dunoon, Tignabruaich, Otter Ferry, Stachur, Ardentinny, Dunnon. About 75 miles 3000ft climbing ( misses C11 climb !). This takes in the beautiful rolling road along Loch Fyne. Possible cafe stops at Tigna or Stachur. Route on map my ride http://www.mapmyride.com/route/gb/argyl ... 3639394851 - dont know how to make this a link ! Al
