Not used it but heard good things about the decathlon grip one.

Iain managed to join us for a bit after getting the later ferry - up to the top of one of the highest and hardest climbs in the west of Scotland then straight back down again!

Great day out. Found anti clockwise harder than clockwise. Probably says more about my weight and lack of fitness though. Going up the Ross afterwards was supremely tough. Blew up at the bottom and started cramping half way up - it took me over 30 minutes for the climb at an average cadence of 38 rpm

Already have plans for monday...if they change may join you

Last time i rode this route it was under £10 in total for the 3 ferries as a passenger with bike. Single to rothesay was under 5, single to colintraive about 1.20 then if you go into the newsagent just before you take the left hand turn to go past the holy loch you can get a cheap western ticket there - a return there it is cheaper than a single when buying on the ferry. They will let you split the ticket too so only 1 needed.

Ok have amended

We were fortunate to witness one of the great comebacks in sporting history tonight......with Charlie getting some points in the sprint after a week in Augusta giving Tiger Woods some golfing tips. Decent return from Ross too. KOM Sam- 5 Galeb - 4 Me - 3 Alan Mcl - 2 Colin - 1 (may be Paul im just going off strava flyby) Finish Me - 6 Paul Mcd- 4 Alan H - 3 Andy - 2 Charlie - 1 I dont have decent internet at the moment so will post full results when BT get round to sorting my broadband.

Usual place. Hopefully as smooth and as #pro as last week Who is in?

Great turn out with 14 riders on a pleasant spring evening - although one that wouldnt have been so pleasant with the tough headwind on the return leg! Joseph M - 18.58 James Ross - 21.13 (couple of mechanicals) Jamie Thomson - 18.40 Alan Hendry - 18.53 (first TT) Dave Watson - 20.32 Alan T - 18.45 Greg Balden - 19.15 Colin Sales - 19.09 Sam McGrath - 18.21 Stuart Tennant - 17.42 Jesse - 18.48 Ian A - 16.15 Marc - 17.19 Guest: Julie Fitzpatrick - 20.22

sounds good....perhaps something that @iain67 (and others) might want to do? Means you can get the later ferry over then join after we've done a lap.

hope to make it Anyone up for a ride over to the velo cafe afterwards?

I’ll try and make it along and help timekeep.

legs are fried so not going to make this, will do something shorter instead. Have a good one!

I'll have a look at race calendar later - in previous years May has had crits on a Thursday night so early June might be best

OK think this is it. Will update the spreadsheet later. Full points for Marc this week and also good spread of riders making the top 5 in the KOM and finish. KOM Marc - 5 Sam - 4 Me - 3 Iain C - 2 Colin - 1 (i may have Iain and Colin wrong but i think thats the order?) --- Sprint Marc - 6 Me - 4 Ian A - 3 Alan Mcl - 2 Andy - 1

Lap of the island then a slightly shorter lap going over the Ross .

He’s been taking all my strava KOMs on the island!

Good turn out tonight and much smoother and tidier than last week who was 4th and 5th in the KOM and Finish?

yeah 1800

I think i make this but happy to do later in year too and postpone the chain gang that week

Usual meeting place at the bus stop. Who is in?

yeah good luck and have a great day

Tough night with the wind. Tough night also due to a few guys having a good winter in their legs! The start worked out alright with bunch spelling through smoothly for that part. After Bishy Hill it was faster but with more surging and a bit messier...maybe due to the tailwind. Anyway good to be back

Posting on behalf of Jess - Does anyone have a pair of deep section wheels they are looking to sell? Rim brake, preferably clincher. Alternatively has anyone seen any websites with good wheel bargains?

630 from last week in April
