Ah, nae luck McB
Think 8 of us started. Pretty awful headwind and our numbers slowly dwindled and a route change of Dalry onto the BB was made. I soon found myself left with Alex, Geo and Iain. Legs had only done 35 miles but felt like 100 and my mental toughness left me as I was getting dropped uphill leaving Dalry towards WK. The lure of nearby home was too great and I threw in the towel and pottered home.
I think at this point I may officially be doing your medium LBL. Full one seems an impossible task just now.
