This week it's a 25TT on A77, start at 7pm so meet at 6:45, The route is: Start at the roundabout at the A77 with the Eaglesham B764 road,and head north up the A77 to the roundabout just after the Malletsheugh (on the edge of Newton Mearns) and turn. Head back out on the A77 pass through 3 roundabouts and turn at the 4th at the B751 Kilmaurs road. Back up the A77 passing the East Renfrewshire golf club, finishing at the Motorway signpost about 1/3 mile past the golf club. ​This is the IvyCC course that some members may have ridden before. Here's a link to a route map: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/777931811 I'll come up and timekeep, another pair of hands to hold up would be welcome. Please post if you intend to ride.

Tam, it will be 09:00 at the club room in Miller Street. Pace is difficult to define, but last time I did this route I averaged 14mph, I suggest you come along and see how it goes. It's due to be a nice day so if there are a lot of us we may split into a faster and a less fast group.

Hi Chris, How about a trip to Whitelees Windfarm, about 45 miles round trip from the club rooms and a good cafe. The route goes through Stewarton, so the same as last week to start with but we can go back a different way. Here is a link to a possible route: https://app.strava.com/routes/2508215

Just catching up with this thread after having been away during the week, good to see Gerard and James took part, a good thing about a new event is everyone gets a PB We could have another run of this later in the season if there is demand, but not on a Tuesday evening as we already have other TTs planned for all the Tuesdays until the dark night close in again!

Hi Paul, I hope to be out for this, not been to Troon for a while!

A new competition for one week only, using the same route as the Restricted Gear TT we did back in March - but without the restriction! Here is a link to the route: http://www.mapmyride.../view/651582320 the TT is 2 laps of the circuit with just over 5 miles for each lap. A 19:00 start so meet at 18:45. Two volunteers please for timekeeping and pushing off. I can't make it this time, enjoy!

Chocolate Series number 10 this week, the last of this years Chocolate Series. As usual first-timers and returners welcome! First rider off at 19:00, meet at 18:45 at the usual place towards the Inchinnan end of Georgetown Road. Here's the link to the course: JWCC Georgetown Road TT Route for anyone who may not have done this route before. I plan to be along and will help officiate unless there are other volunteers, in which case I'll take part.

I'll come along, 6:30 for 6:45 at the club rooms.

Chocolate Series number 9 this week. As usual first-timers and returners welcome! First rider off at 19:00, meet at 18:45 at the usual place towards the Inchinnan end of Georgetown Road. Here's the link to the course: JWCC Georgetown Road TT Route for anyone who may not have done this route before. Two volunteers please to timekeep / pushoff, maybe someone whose not volunteered yet this year? (It's not difficult!) I can't make it again this week.

Anyone coming along for this? 9 o'clock start at the club rooms, Miller Street.

Looking to go to the Bagel Basket in Largs, out via Fairlie Moor, return by Brisbane Glen. Some good roads and can be great views. 58 miles, 3000 feet but at a moderate pace. Here is a link to the route: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/378584989 Please post if you're planning to come along.

Why not come along to the Fyne Cowal 200 km audax, starts in Bridge of Weir and has been good in previous years and you can sign up at the start. http://www.johnstone-wheelers.co.uk/thebunch/index.php?/topic/7676-a-fyne-cowal-200km-0n-our-door-step-13th-june/

Well done to Gerard, taking over 3 minutes off last weeks time - but I don't think you can expect a similar improvement every week!

Chocolate Series number 8 this week. As usual first-timers and returners welcome! First rider off at 19:00, meet at 18:45 at the usual place towards the Inchinnan end of Georgetown Road. Here's the link to the course: JWCC Georgetown Road TT Route for anyone who may not have done this route before. Two volunteers please to timekeep / pushoff. I can't make it again this week.

I'm planning on doing this. It would be great to have more company from the club (Campbell's to fast for me!) I'll see you at the start Campbell, but probably not after that!

Three of us headed off to the Dunlop Dairy cafe near Stewarton, out via Lochwinnoch and Beith, return via Lugton and Howwood. About 30 miles round trip from the club rooms in bright sunshine and a moderate breeze. Only a few spots of rain in the whole trip - maybe summer has arrived! Thanks to Sans and Anthony for coming along, a good day out on the bike.

Planning to do a fairly gentle ride, can decide on a route at the club rooms depending who is there, but to include a cafe stop! Who'd like to come along?

Chocolate Series number 7 this week. As usual first-timers and returners welcome! First rider off at 19:00, meet at 18:45 at the usual place towards the Inchinnan end of Georgetown Road.

A return to the Chocolate Series this week. As usual first-timers and returners welcome! First rider off at 19:00, meet at 18:45 at the usual place towards the Inchinnan end of Georgetown Road. Here's the link to the course: JWCC Georgetown Road TT Route for anyone who may not have done this route before. I'll come along to timekeep / pushoff, one other volunteer please to officiate.

I'm just picking up on this having got home from touring. I suggest recheduling the Frank Lauder to 11th August, this is the 3rd of the 4 scheduled League of 10s in July / August, leaving the last one as a further contingent date should the need arise. Whilst this may not please everybody, it avoids changing other planned confined events, gives the opportunity to practice in the 2 weeks previous, and avoids cancelling totally for the year. Please PM me with any comments you may have on this.

Thanks for organising this Chung, a good run out. We just need to focus on having enjoyed the sun rather than suffered the hail!

Sounds fun, I'll join the route at Port Glasgow - I expect you'll catch me somewhere between there are Loch Thom.

The fifth of this year's scheduled Chocolate Series of TTs, and the last one of the current series as we will be having League of 10s in May, returning to the Chocolate in June. As usual first-timers and returners welcome! First rider off at 19:00, so meet at 18:45 at the usual place towards the Inchinnan end of Georgetown Road. Here's the link to the course: JWCC Georgetown Road TT Route I will not be out this week, but two volunteers please to officiate.
