Have to agree with Greg. Cycling and jwcc should be for all, not just for the middle aged and middle class. It's bad that cycling has become the new golf, no need for jwcc to become one of those elitist type clubs. There's something romantic about the blood sweat and tears of nailing yourself on the bike, whether it be on mid week training runs, long hard Hilly club runs, challenging sportives or racing. It would be amazing to also do this abroad, pricing out fellow club m8s to amble around the country side to then retire to a king size duck feather duvet just seems wrong ... treat the wife/boyfriend whomever if that's your bag... hard days cycling, enjoy the beer, somewhere to rest the head, simple.
 
I'm laying it on a bit thick but you get the point

Sorry guys, one too many over the last couple of days 🻠and wrong choice of gear, Freezing and hungover and didn't want to be the one holding yous back so turned around and headed for home. 40 miserable cold wet windy miles in the bag and I had to get out my bed at 6.20 for the pleasure... I must be mad...

I have also had the pleasure of said café and it gets a 10/10 from me.. I hope to join you if only for the triple tower burger

Flying to Milan and traveling to Lake Como seems abit of extra work as we need to get back to Milan.
 
I like the idea of flying into Milan getting to Hotel unpacking bike and gear for ride and getting Sportive guys to pick up my Bike box full of my stuff. Next day do ride and get to hotel in San Remo, 2-3 days around San remo cycling and eating/drinking, train/bus to airport from san remo when we decide to go home.
 
Again Just my idea but happy to go with majority
 
 
Cheers

Well done to Ian Archibald on winning the Monaive APR. Simply stunning & hope I am as good as u when I your age

Found hotels in Nice - three triple rooms for two nights. Works out at £17 per person per night. Not too bad location wise either.
 
We really need to sort numbers first and then get an evening sorted to plan.
 
Count me in for MSR though!

Hotel in San remo - right on coast near the centre - for 10 wheelers £196 a night(£20 each) buffet breakfast(might be extra) 
 
Has Wi-Fi and Fire Extinguisher

Yeah great day considering not feeling it at the moment, cheers to Paul for ride in and back, was great way to bookend the race.. hard shift but 10th and supposed prize money for someone a stone over weight will have to do. Looking good Robbie your definitely up for the racing 😉

So 9 45 at the Bishopton Coop. I can tell you how I beat your PB on the Georgetown this Tuesday night. Low pressure, little wind and super fit... 

Too slow for me mate but cheers anyway.
