Id take it off yer hands if irene would let me get rid of the dining table james but sadly i doubt it

i see your using the android strava app alan it might be a fault in the gps on your phone

finally got round to trying strava on the way back from lochwinnoch today http://app.strava.com/activities/28225777

Whats the point of the wheelers facebook page reason i ask is its a friends page if it was a group or a "like page" it would be more engaging

wont be there i have the paisley rememberence ceremony to attend

im not a member YET but being unemployed atm i do have a lot of time on my hands currently i help run the paisley.org.uk website and do a lot of voluntary stuff promoting paisley

too fast for me then

im no like that newbie turns up and says "oops forgot my wallet" aye right i considered trying to catch you lot at erskine but decided to just stay home and fettle the bike couple of gears were jumping

got to johnstone about 9:20 and realised never had my wallet so turned back home

i'll be there unless the heavens open in morning

ive been recommended Conti Gator skins or Schwalbe Durano

Nope dont need tubes but i do need to change the tyres on this bike for something more suitable for winter and puncture proofing , any suggestions (clinchers)

better off on the roads than the cycle track going by this mornings run

i was on a yellow carerra with a yellow altura night vision jacket george (i know its not a top spec bike but will do me over the winter to get my fitness up )

george did you go along the cycle path ?? i met two cyclists just at the bridge over the bypass but they were not wearing wheelers tops and indeed it was a bit dicey on the path

Oh i think my sense of humour is intact after turning up at miller st this morning and was only me and richard ended up having a blast down to lochwinnoch and back and encountered hail rain and sunshine and grieg glad to hear nobody gets left behind i know the route well but the would rather avoid the cycle path cos i dont think its the best section for road bikes especially from maryhill to town

richard i headed down to lochwinnoch and back and same got drenched and was surprised at the hail i encountered maybe the others saw the weather and thought better off it nice to meet you this morning anyway

what sort of pace will you guys be running tomorrow ?? suitable for beginners/returners ?

I know kenny but last time i used clipless i had them done up with little movement and had some problems adjusting to them so this time im giving the joints a wee bit of freedom till i get used to them and then switch to the red cleats

guess i should have asked for advice first before taking the plunge but you live and learn but i got a good deal on the pedals and giro road shoes so cant complain

im sure i'll get used to them only done about 20 miles with them and the road bike so far i have a hybrid and a mtd both with flat pedals

janza i have the sl shimanos with the yellow cleats to allow a bit more float george they might have become de-rigour 85 but only time ive used clipless when i was doing MTD racing back in about 89-93 never used clipless on road and so far its led to a few comedy moments

Is it just me or do they take some getting used to ?? does everyone use clipless or there any old school diehards ??

ok first 10 mile run on the road bike and gotta say it was fun but hard work, forgot the different muscles groups in wrists , forearms and shoulders you use compared to a hybrid/mtb and going from no cleats / toe clips to cleats and clipless seem to be giving my old knees a bit of grief Hopefully though i will get used to it again and get fitter

thinking about tagging along got a road bike and even sorted out some clipless pedals and overshoes today so ready for most weather might not be able to make it this week after all i forgot its the paisley fireworks event which is generally all day thing and i'm doing photography for paisley.org.uk
