  1. Soooo Geo goes missing for a couple of seasons and big Mcbride turns up and some might say he is ok/not too bad on the bike? Geo then decides to make a comeback and Mcbride hasn't been out?!?

     

    2 possible reasons;

     

    1. They are scared of each other and don't want to battle it out?

     

    2. They are the same person....... Has anyone ever been in the room with them together?!?!?

     

     

    Friday nights thoughts from a Toole!

  2. So me and my BFF decided to go out a wee cycle today, Kilgreggan was the destination for an extended cafe break!

     

    Just over the bridge and into Bowling the familiar sound that accompanies a Toole and Gummer cycle a big psssssshhh from Gummers back wheel! Fixed and another 3 miles down the road my bottle cage came flying off with bottle still in! I stop and cycled back up and got it, when I returned Gummers now front tyre was deflated!!

     

    So after 13 miles of cycling we have no tubes left and one useless gas canister left!!!

     

    Got to Dumbarton halfords who only sell top of the range tubes that have a 60mm to fit Gummers wheels and packs of 5 gas canisters so Gummers shelled out much more than he ever wished to spend on two tubes and gas!!

     

    Rest of ride was lovely, freezing cold and wet!

     

    Full all day breakfast fuelled the rest of the ride!!!

     

    Me and Gummers are desperate for a double hammock award and we will try and organise another puncture filled ride before the year is out for the hatrick!!!!

  3. Hey paul... you just need a speed sensor/cadence sensor(ant+) and a turbo/rollers for zwift to work. It guesstamates your power. I used it for months like this when I got a power meter my FTP droped by about 50watss.

    I didn't realise power could go into negative numbers?!

  4. It would suit me as well if it was every second week! If it's ok with Billy every second Monday could be Winter World Cup so the first one would be the 17th! Was thinking ten laps sprint every second lap 3,2,1 points 20 points for break away and catch!

     

    Will make a separate post in midweek club runs but just now post up if you would be interested in every second week!?

  5. Right,

     

    Don't want to annoy anyone (Billy is in a constant state of annoyance anyway)but what are peoples thoughts on Winter World Cup on a Monday night, if the general consensus is people would rather do turbo that's fine and I will come to Turbo and moan every week!!!!

  6. Work less, spend more time with family and cycle my Bike ;)

    "Arran Arran" and Maybe a shot at Everesting in the Middle of summer If I can Find a hill I like going up and down a hundred times or so

  7. After a successful season of winning the Renfrewshire 1/2 Ironman championships (admittedly the only entrant) and completing an Ironman (have I mentioned this?) it's time to do what coach MacDonut suggests and set new goals for next season so here's mine;

     

    1. DA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    2. Beating Paul McDonald's time up the C11 (he bet me a case of beer if I can)

    3. Getting another SA to get a hatrick of them.

    4. Finish top ten in summer World Cup (was 11th, I think, this year)

    4. My annual unachievable goal of beating Paul McDonald to the Largs 30!

    5. Bealach Na Ba Weekend

    6. To continue looking good in Lycra
