Thule Ride On Bike Carrier 9301 - towbar mounted 2 bike rack. Going free to a good Wheelers home.

Meeting Eric...bus stop just past Newark roundabout at 10:00 if anyone else out....

George, are you out Sun? Or anyone else for that matter? If not then it's only myself and Eric and we can meet elsewhere to save a trek to the clubrooms.....

Up for a trip to Largs if Geo & Eric (plus any others are out.)

Got a score to settle with Hardknott....had to walk between the left and right hairpins. Can remember the descent being worse than the climb though! If I can fit a 32 then I'm in for another shot at it.....

Planning to be there .... outward through Bishy so I can get a long lie?

Late entry....will be along.

Planning to ride Sunday's.

Thinking of jumping on the Turbo bandwagon this year and am considering this offering from Halfords that is in my price range with a British Cycling discount also.... http://www.halfords.com/cycling/turbo-trainers/trainers/tacx-flow-t2240-smart-turbo-trainer Seems to fit the bill with all the talk of Zwift. Any comments / advice out there?

Iain, How about 09:20?

Will join at Red Smiddy roundabout.

Planning to get back out...hopefully to Helensburgh and bail when the serious climbing starts!!!

10.00 good for me....

Mark, Up for this if only to see how far off the pace I am for Main Bunch rides (not for Bogs!!!!) Should make most weeks apart from Sept Weekend (24th.) Can start this Sat. - weather looks good so far....

Up North on the Isles that weekend...have a good night....
