Sorry Iain, a bit too long for me at the moment. Hope to up the mileage soon.
Enjoy!
-
See you then
-
My house, one down from the dentist. Kilbarchan 8:30
-
How about this for a route: down church street, over to clohidric stone, up to barnbrock, Kilmalcolm, finlaystone, gleddoch, Houston, bow.
A few hills but no intention of anything other than sauntering up them.
-
I might pop along for a bit, what are you thinking? Was going to try and build in easy so no more than an hour and a half.
-
Looking at strava mr Archibald went 4:00 up the clune, Iain mcT and Colin were 4:26 and 4:29 respectively. Sounds like you'd have given him a run for his money
-
The big man is in good form, but there is always next week! Hope to be rejoining you soon.
-
No bike at the moment, hopefully next week
-
Unlucky Iain, sounds like you made all the right moves - and that's half the battle.
-
Here's my report, rear mech snapped on cycle over to Fenwick, rescued by Alan McBride and a happy spectator for the day. Gutted!
-
Unlucky Alan, hope you're better soon. Thanks guys!
Is anyone else up for this ride over or is it just Charlie and I?
-
Sorry, I didnt realise I you were talking abut sat, apologies. What's the plan for Sunday?
-
That seems a bit excessive Alex! Surely ride over OR drive over and do a lap.
-
On my list, but not day before race. Hopefully some time soon.
-
Race 1 is 2:30 - me, Alex and Paul leavy in group 1: Charlie, Colin ad George in group 2, and Greg Henderson (i thought he was a pro for lotto soudal) in group 3
Race 2 is at 4:15 - Alan Mcbride and andy in group 1, Paul McD in group 2.
I have a feeling it's two laps but not entirely sure.
Sorry forgot to say Charlie, I'll most likely see you on sat so I could pick up jersey then.
-
Cheers for the advice guys. I'm easy on ride/drive. I won't make Saturday - though Andy's given me all the info I need!
It's 2 laps isn't it? I'll learn first time round...
-
Cheers Alex, will wait to see what the wise old men think! Fenwick is quite a long way away! Don't want the two of us turning up with nothing left... Charlie might win!
-
A few (stupid) questions from a first time racer...
Is anybody planning on riding over to fenwick?
If driving, are you wearing your race kit there or do you get changed into/out of gear there?
Is anyone planning on hanging around after race 1 to watch race 2?
If so will there be food & drink available?
I'm sure I'll think of some more later... I'm a worrier
-
I'm really not that fussed to be honest Charlie, I wouldn't want to take a spot from anyone if they really wanted to do it. And you guys didn't actually get to do the full route last year so it's only fair you get a crack at the full 100.
-
If you got two teams I'd throw my hat in.
-
Cheers Charlie!
Don't forget Colin is in with you guys so George can have a domestique of his own!
-
Good draw!
Unless the kit order comes early I'll need to borrow a jersey off somebody if that's alright? Not fussed about smell!
-
Will that affect points allocation Paul?
-
Cheers Iain! Hopefully a knowledgeable rider is a fast rider!

Gutted we missed you, to be fair Charlie was 4 mins late! Knee held up pretty well, can't complain with the weather and even managed a coffee stop within a 2hr ride.
