I will try to make to Bishy hill on Thursday, as won't make Houston for 6pm

Hi are you Chung, everything where it should be?

Gents what time will you be at the bridge on a Sunday?My mate Alan who was out last week ( and lasted a lot longer than me), is also up for joining the club run. Will probably head back at Drymen as need to play the dutiful son on Sunday

Cheers guys much appreciated, hoping I can hang on for as long as possible as I need the miles and fitness. Mark, I'll be one hauling lardy bits to the top! Unsure if anyone interested, wiggle are doing Hi 5 energy gels, pack of 20, buy 1 get 1 free £20 inc'l delivery.

Hi Charlie what kind of distance do you normally do and how fast is the pace?

Hi Chung glad to hear you're ok and no permanent damage. One positive was that your crash let me catch up to what was a beltin pace, although once the ambulance disappeared, I was struggling again. Fenwick is a bloody nightmare into the wind, especially as a solo rider! Anyway spoke to big Alan who loved it today and sends his best wishes, sure he'll he a regular from now on. Thanks to Alan Fox and John for offering their wheels to get me back up. Need the miles and will keep pedalling, hoping the fitness comes and can hold my own. Good luck mate and speedy recovery Iain

George, I know what you mean. Dafs in full bloom, warming weather and the forecast looking good, go for it. Wish I could do the same but summer bike in need of a good service, so will be winter bike for me

If the pace is not too much will tag along and see how I fair.

Cheers Chung, yeah will aim to meet up at bridge, what time are you planning? Looking to head out this Sunday as need the miles. May have a couple of new joiners if I can talk them into coming Cheers mate Iain

Hi Chung did that run Last year and was around 80 ish miles from Erskine bridge, tough old run mate. Unsure how you'll get to Drymen but I use the farm road from Alexandria to croftamie, bit bumpy but no traffic. Enjoy mate Iain

Good run today guys enjoyed the company, legs sore but happy for the miles. Glad everyone got home safe and sound Cheers Iain

Mark many thanks for all your efforts in organising, much appreciated and looking forward to getting my new kit, cheers mate Iain

Order placed

Ok Billy interested in getting involved but also away a lot through work, let me know more info as happy to put myself forward if work permits

Billy, can you let me know a few more details, frequency, etc?

Great first ride on the season, thanks to the mini group in the 40 milers who got me up the the heali brae. Big thanks to Kenny fir organising and bottle of juice, even if it did taste rotten!

Completed the ride last year and have been fortunate to get a ballot place this year. Would recommend booking hotel soonest as holiday inn express near Olympic park increased from £65 last year to £110 this year and most hotels now fully booked. Cheers Iain

Hi Kenny I was going to come along and watch so happy to help if needed, just let me know time and place Cheers Iain

Hi Mark have just joined for 2014 and looking to get back out over the next week or so. Thought I better order some kit and at least I'll look the part ! Can I order x 1 S/sleave and x 1 L/sleave Ascent jersey, x 1 summit pro bib short and would also take a set of Arm Warmers if your ordering. Please let me know if you need sizes? Did you manage to get a ballot place for the Prudential Ride London 100? Cheers, Iain

Hi Jan I have transferred £33 to the above account as I took part in a time trial on Georgetown road last year with Billy and Iain Coutie. Did not have any cash with me and Iain said I could pay later. Have not managed out during winter, so wanted to square away what was owed. Intending to get out on Sundays over the coming weeks and keep in up over spring/summer. Please let me know when received Thanks Iain

Hi Jan I cycled with the main bunch end of last year and would like to join this year. Can you please advise if paying by bank transfer, what info do you require from me as a new member, or would a cheque be preferable? Many thanks in advance Iain Carvill

Mark sounds like a really good run and sorry I missed it, last time I let the missus organise a quiet Saturday night with friends. 2.00 am finish after saying I needed to be up at 07.30! Hope to make it to the next one. Cheers Iain

Mark, should be ok for Sunday. Can you let me know if mud guards are a must or do I have a week or so before changing to winter bike?

Can't make it on Sunday but enjoy your ride. Mark O, hope you get some better weather than Saturday! Iain

Ok Mark will plan to be at miller street for 09.30. See you then
