    George got a reaction from John C in Sunday 16/08/20   
    As we edge gradually back to semi-normality we are now allowed club runs, albeit in reduced group sizes and with safeguards in place.
    The committee have given the ok for club rides to start up but only in groups of a maximum of 5. We can do multiple groups though, so long as we don’t mix. 
    With this in mind I propose the first ride to meet at 9:30am this Sunday outside the club rooms. It’ll be the bog standard ride to BB in Largs. The reason being it’s somewhere we are familiar with so less chance of any social distancing faux pas in the cafe. If all goes well we can do different routes each week.
    If folk post up here to let me know they are coming I will call the BB to book a table as it’s reduced capacity and bound to be busy, going by the forecast.
    anyone wishing to attend must give me their phone number so I can pass it on to Eric, our Covid officer. I will bring hand sanitizer which anyone is free to use but ideally you will  bring your own. 
    If someone has a mechanical they will have to fix it themselves due to 2 metre rule.
    Finally, if you have a dry cough, have lost your sense of smell &/or taste or have a temperature PLEASE STAY AWAY!!!!

    We should do pop up TT's. Good air pressure, light winds, immediately pop up a 24 hour Strava window Georgetown challenge. We must be due some floaters.

    Was out for a ride along the Georgetown today & no traffic lights. Road from railway bridge to finish nice & smooth too so race is on for Tuesday.
    as usual, ride course anytime on Tuesday and I’ll gather results from Strava.
    Could d be some real events on in August so this is ideal practice.

    George reacted to Jannza in Arran (leisurely pace)   
    Alarm was set for 7am, set off at 8am. I was booked on the 09:40 ferry. Joined by another 9 or maybe 11 people and bikes.
    Didn't have any breakfast, thought I would get a bacon roll and a coffee to take away in the wee cafe just beside the ferry in Brodick, it was shut!
    Got off the ferry in Brodick at 10:50 and headed south. Lovely smooth tarmac in Brodick.
    Carried on to next place, cafe shut! There was one opened in Whiting Bay but it was busy and couldn't be bothered waiting in the queue.
    It was Lochranza? (Wee ferry) before there was anywhere open that sold hot food.
    Quite enjoyed the big long climb and then the totally awesome decent after this 😁
    Rolled along into Brodick for 4pm in time to catch the 16:45 ferry back
     
    FYI you need to wear face covering in the ticket office and on ferry (in case anyone forgets)
    There is quite a lot of very rough tarmac, particularly going through towns/villages.
    There are no food or drinks available on ferry.

    George reacted to EricL in Scottish Cycling - Covid19 Update 13/07/2020   
    Many of you will already be aware of the updated guidance issued yesterday by Scottish Cycling on The Way Forward for the sport and club activities, the full document can be viewed here https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/zuvvi/media/Scottish_Cycling_The_Way_Forwardv7.pdf
    For now it appears that a continuation of 'social' solo and small group rides remains the only realistic course of action - max adult bunch size will likely be 5 if all riders are from different households, still nothing indoors (i.e. use of clubroom), no events, no confined TT. Maintain 2m distancing and personal hygiene (hands, mouth & nose). To avoid need for ride register maybe best to let ‘informal’ ride groups form. Much of the SC document relates to club coaching, which we don’t do, and activities for U17 (Jets).
    This document from Scottish Cycling is being regularly amended however it does follow guidance from and requires prior approval of the Scottish Government as each relaxation is announced. so we can expect further changes in the coming weeks.
    In the meantime have a good read through and self manage accordingly as there continues to be no official JWCC event until further notice.

    Hi all, committee are reading latest guidance and will post our views in next couple of days. It's important for public safety,  our insurance and our club image and local standing that any official club activities, (especially those performed in club kit) comply with guidance. Thanks for your patience, could be a good end to summer!
