  1. Don't know about Tuesday, but tonight looks too hot for me. Anyone want to meet same place and go for a more gentler run?
  2. er, how many miles is that exactly?????
  3. ok I'm in but if I find I'm holding you all back then I will potter off on my own (not without telling you so - if I can catch you!) Good luck to the Jets in Ingliston! James
  4. um, don't we use the Wheeler's website anymore? I have been looking for some events there!
  5. Can I have some more information for this newbie please? Would like to be involved if poss.
  6. Hi Tony Like everyone else, very sorry to hear about your break. And I thought you were quite a sensible guy! lol Get well soon, James
  7. Hi Elaine Not sure what direction you are heading but I would like to meet up if I can. I have to drop off my son Hamish (and may be daughter Emma) for Jets coaching in Erskine at 9.30am to 11-30am. Would you be coming out that way? James
  8. Thanks Tony. Very challenging, but I enjoyed it. James
  9. Hi, Tony and I are meeting at 1.30pm at Miller Street for a cycle (don't know how long). Anyone else is welcome. James
  10. Hi Tony That sounds great. Should make it alright for 1.30, anyone else want to join us? James
  11. Hi Tom Sorry, mornings are usually a problem. Fancy a run this afternoon, anyone? James
  12. Hi, How many miles did you cycle (could not open up the route)? When did you get back to the clubhouse? I was wondering, since a Sunday morning cycle is always going to be difficult for me to make, whether anyone would consider going out in the afternoon, say for a 2pm start? Maybe after a soup and sandwich lunch! Just for future you understand. Regards James
  13. Hi Tony Thanks for the loan of the book. Sorry, have not been able to contact you sooner as I could not log in. Cheers James
  14. Er, just to make you feel a bit better, I work as a church officer, so I hardly ever get out on a Sunday. Cyclocross races excepted!!!!
  15. Giant compact road bike ( racer) sold on eBay for £181.38
  16. Hi, I have just picked up a Raleigh Airlite 300 2009 road bike with upgraded wheels for about £150 so I am happy. I had my eye on a Giant compact road bike and I think you could get yourself a bargain. Be quick though as the finish is tomorrow just after 10 am!!! Check it out item number 120674847518. No interest yet and the start bid is £150. only done 250 miles. Seller says: "its small. compact frame. suits height 5ft 6 weight 53 kgs. If you could provide some bubblewrap with the courier...I have a crazy work week so it would have to be collected next week if courier." I can arrange a courier to collect for about £20. I am sure the seller can find some packaging if not we caould always send some to them. Hope someone is interested. Regards James
  17. Hi Anyone got a set of cycle training rollers that they could sell me? Any condition considered. Thanks James
  18. Hi Tony Do you still have the book? I would like to have a look at it if I may. Thanks James
  19. Oh, and I forgot to say, that if you do subscribe to a magazine why not sign up with www.easyfundraising.org.uk first and support your charity/cause. They will give £2.50 to your charity if you take out a subscription at My Favourite Magazines. If your charity is not listed, here have mine Teen Challenge Strathclyde or better still, use this link below to set up Johnstone Wheelers to receive extra funds: http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/referral/12556 Just paste this unique referral link into your web browser and then register with us. When you use this link, the system automatically recognises that you have been referred by Teen challenge Strathclyde and allocates us referral payments accordingly. FREE MONEY? WHERE DO I SIGN?! Have you heard about easyfundraising yet? It’s the easiest way to raise money for your group! 34 million people in the UK now shop regularly online. Join easyfundraising and like 1000’s of other organisations, you can earn donations every time one of your supporters makes a purchase on the Web. Sounds too good to be true? Well read on… So how does it work? By using the links on the easyfundraising site to visit any of over 2,000 well known retailers, a percentage of whatever your supporters spend with each retailer will be passed to you as a donation. How much can you raise? When a supporter spends £100 with M&S online, they’ll raise £2.50 for you. £100 spent with Amazon raises £2.50, whilst £100 with WH Smith puts £2.00 in your pocket and so on. Some donations can be as much as 15% of the purchase price. Purchasing with well known insurers such as Direct Line, Churchill, More Than and Aviva will generate a one-off donation, sometimes as much as £40! Which retailers are included? easyfundraising works with over 2,000 of the best known online retailers, including all the big brand names such as Amazon, Argos, M&S, John Lewis, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Comet, Boden, eBay, Boots, B&Q, Thomas Cook, Virgin and many, many more. There really is something for everyone! Hang on…what’s the catch? No catch. The donation is passed on from the actual retailer as a percentage of the purchase price and doesn’t cost you or your supporters a penny. It’s much cheaper for retailers to sell goods online than in the high street so they’re happy to pass part of the extra profit to your organisation as a donation. So far Teen Challenge Strathclyde has already raised £94.44! Save money too! And on top of raising funds for your organisation, easyfundraising is packed full of hundreds of exclusive discounts and voucher codes, so not only will your supporters be raising donations for you, they’ll be saving money for themselves too.

When you sign up via this link Teen Challenge Strathclyde will receive a thank you from easyfundraising for referring you.

Remember, easyfundraising is totally FREE to register and use for both you and your supporters. Thanks – and happy fundraising!

  21. Kenny How many oil filled radiators would you like to borrow for the club house? Do you want a quote for a new boiler or is that in hand now? James
  22. Hi, I hope to be there on Saturday, but if not, if there are any clothes being thrown out (wet or otherwise) please put them to one side and I will collect for the charity. (Condition is not important as we get paid by weight.) I guess we are talking shovel rather than mop in this weather, or are there some blow heaters being used? James
  23. Yipee. The votes cast look for an extended season,yes?
  24. Er, How much? What I need most, I think, is some one to tell me what size of bike I need. If I came along to one of the turbo sessions at the club, could I get an idea from someone of what size bike to buy. I think I will be buying a secondhand bike and possibly off eBay. If I get it and it does not fit then I could expect to sell it for similar money. But, much better to buy one that I know is likely to fit! Does that make sense? James
