Five left clubrooms this morning for sunny Largs. Bill, Boyd, AndyM, Carol & Dave. Good time made down to Port Glasgow, where Bill had us stopped to admire a huge yacht tied up where a passing local advised us it has been there for a month and belongs to Mr Expedia !! . Pressed on to Wemyss Bay where we sheltered across from the station during a downpour and then pressed on to Largs into a bit of a headwind.. Bill and Boyd decided to carry on and skip the delights of the Bagel Basket.The rest Met Graham and Mia just leaving after a change of route for them. Three of us refuelled and scortched up the Haylie and home via Kilbirnie and track. A few firsts for AndyM..first Sunday run, first time up the Haylie and first time in the BB. Well done to all on what turned out to be a fairly dry day afterall.
Dave and Carol.

How about a trip to the Bagel Basket in Largs. .
Flatish route on the way out. Track to Kilmacolm, down the Clune, Port Glasgow, Greenock, Gourock, Gantocks, Inverkip, Wemyss Bay and then Largs. Return via Haylie Brae and Kilbirnie. Bail out option is train from Largs if anyone does not fancy the Haylie, but it is not that bad really and will regroup at top. All welcome.
Clubrooms 9.00am

Hi ladies,
Morna and myself were thinking of entering this sportive. Leaves from Glasgow Green 8.30 can't seem to
get a link but if you go into Rapha website for route etc.
Be good to get a few ladies from Johnstone Wheelers for a team and maybe share some cars to get to the start.
Post up if interested
Thanks
Carol

Really good night last night and great that quite a few people turned up. Thought we could have a regular night maybe every 4 - 6 weeks or so and
we could try different venues, what does everyone think of that ?
I think Dave and myself overindulged feeling a bit worse for wear but I loved that raspberry gin, thanks Sans for getting me into the gins change from
bacardi and coke.

Weather looking dry until about 1pm so how about heading to Dunlop Dairy just outside Stewarton. Can leave clubrooms and head along track to Kilbirnie, through industrial estate and cross over to MOD road to Highfield. Stewarton Road to Bloak Road to Dairy for coffee stop. Can return via Dunlop - Lugton.
Who's coming out.
Dave.

Carol ,Mary and Dave started out in wet conditions but it eventually dried up. The cycle track from Dumbarton to Balloch alongside the Leven river has been tarmaced since the last time we rode it a few years ago and is an excellent flat, smooth and scenic route in places. We made our way to Lomond shores for a coffee,scone and cheesecake stop. Returned via Alexandria/ Renton road, over the bridge and left Mary at the Georgetown turn off. Good to catch up with you Mary. Just over 40miles. Carol

Weather forecast looking abit wet for Sunday but if dry how about a run North of the Clyde to the shores of Loch Lomond,
Clubrooms at 9.00am Moss Road to Erskine Bridge, clyde cycle track to Dumbarton and then track following the River Leven. Coffee stop options at Balloch or Lomond Shores. Return via Bonhill. This is a fairly flat route on a good track surface.

Four set out yesterday, Boyd, Richie Carol & Dave. Good run with an unintentional farm watch tour around the rear of the RNAD at Beith.
Teas, coffees and scones under the sun canopy at Dalgarven Mill and homeward bound as the temperature kept rising. Stopped off at Castle Semple for a cold drink and home for 45miles. Thanks for the company guys. Dave

Hi Alan
Thought it would be a bit more casual and if someone wants to order some snacks they still could. However if most people want to go for an
actual meal that's fine I can book a table in the restaurant.

Anyone fancy a trip to Dalgarven. Similar route to last week, Bowfield, Gateside, Barmill and continue on towards Kilwiinning.
Quiet country roads with a few hills, but mainly flat after initial climb out of Howwood. Suitable for all.
9am Clubrooms.

Thanks to Chung for posting the route and being the mechanic. If anyone has DT Swiss skewers, don't try and lever them off, they screw off...school boy error. Hopefully did not spoil the run which was done in warm weather for a change. Good company and good day to out on the bike as the photos above show. Thanks to all. Dave & Carol..
