Dave & Carol in the cafe, Rita & John on cycle track, Boyd at traffic lights and didn't see who passed me on way into Kilmacolm, Alan?

It was me, best wishes, E.

Thanks for posting this Bunch run Greg,  nice ride today with a good paced group of 12 setting out, conditions were breezy and caught some drizzle.

Chapeau to JohnC for successfully making it up the Glen Fruin climb with that gear set up, stuck in the big ring! Also, ColinS completing his festive 500. 

Good route Glen, cold start but we found the sun in N Ayrshire after passing through some dodgy fog patches earlier. Shared Dunlop Dairy tearoom with our 30 milers, which was nice. Shame about the punctures otherwise no dramas and the bunch enjoyed a good day on the bike!

Yes..... I will follow U2.

Should be able to join you.

Yup. 

Leaving kilmacolm cross at 0932 for easy ride to bridge if anyone else, esp Eric, wants to join.

will be there!

Will head over to help timekeeping or push.

Really nice morning for the bunch ride, using many little known single track North Ayrshire roads to arrive in Stewarton for a quality 'pit stop' as can be seen from Darryl's pictures above.

Thanks DavieB for the route and the bunch for wheels. 

A day of superlatives in so many ways!

Great climbs, distance, route (as amended), weather, lunch, bunch and fun along the way... 

Great route Charlie, nice and steady, superb day in the sun and fun on the hills, thank you to all. 

I’m in

A couple of worthies chewin’ the fat and putting the world to right! 

Captions???

Managed to clear my diary! Meet you at Kilmacolm or along track shortly after 8.00

Yes.

Thanks Glen, I will be attending.

Thanks for the route today Darryl, enjoyed that and good to do the coast run and visit B.B. ‘out of season’ ! 

Really sad news, big man and great character gone far too soon. 

Yes, at BoW.

Yes. 

Got it Billy, looks similar to ‘Lumpy Largs’....if not we could do that on a Wednesday morning run.

 Sadly, for me, not here on 3rd.

Great run today, good bunch on mostly decent roads, thanks for the route Darryl.

will have to be bridge at 9.00 for me.

Should be along for the ride...
