The usual... Non-stop pacey 45 miles round the coast. Departing from Houston roundabout at 09.30am. Weather forecast looking good again, post if you would like to join.

Only me and Jan today and only another three riders. Weather was not too bad once you get going. With a small tidy bunch it was a good workout and we managed to maintain quite a good pace with an avg. of 24.5mph

Sunday Training Ride 10th June 9.30am

With no takers decided to just do a quick one instead as had some family things to attend to. Paul just read the race reports sounds like yous guys had fun! -

Just a note... Wasn't out today with the JWCC chain-gang but did bump into bunch just before Houston roundabout - you guys looked tidy. I wasn't directly behind you and there was a car in front of me which seemed to be impatient, close to bunch and trying to overtake. Just after Houston roundabout the car decided to overtake, at that point speed was around 30mph so the car had to go over speed limit to overtake a long stretch of bicycles and it looked like it had to cut it close going back to lane to avoid another car coming in the other direction. Not defending driver but the risk could have possibly been reduced if it was a smaller bunch? So I'm directly behind the bunch now and did not feel comfertable overtaking until we reached the long stretch of houston road. So to safely overtake you could be stuck behind bunch for a bit. Some would be ok with this but you would definitely get impatient drivers that would take risks just to save a few seconds. We had a similar encounter last week when I was out before bishy lights. I think splitting into groups of max 10 may be a good idea...

Sunday Training Ride 3rd June 10am
Galeb replied to Galeb's topic in Sunday Run - Faster / Longer Bunch
5 of us to start with this time . With most of the guys having heavy legs from yesterday's ride meant that 5 became 4 quickly, then 4 of us worked to largs and then for the final stretch it was me and Marc to finish off a solid ride. Good fun thanks for the company guys. -

Sunday Training Ride 13th May 10am
Galeb replied to Galeb's topic in Sunday Run - Faster / Longer Bunch
Another good training ride today with Marc. Full on 2-up TT mode from the start...we kept a fast pace to largs then onto the head wind where pace slowed down but we were still working hard and kept it going...no mucking around, no stopping and eating snacks on the go...just like Arran ...we managed to average just under 22mph. Thanks for the company Marc. If we can get a couple more out would be good...I dont mind solo rides - good charecter building, but its also good to have some wheels to chase sometimes makes you push that little bit harder that makes the difference. -

Galeb replied to Galeb's topic in Sunday Run - Faster / Longer Bunch
Hey Marc...since couldn't make it out today will be doing something similar to this (round the coast) if you would like to join. Leaving 10am. -
Made it just in time...had to change plan slightly and after the clune decided I needed to keep going not sure how much time that saved but it did something as bunch didn't catch me. Might sneak in sometimes since I know I can just about make it in time without getting killed...just
-
Will try and join only to BoW though. Worked out that I might just make it in time before wife goes to Yoga. Can't have any punctures though otherwise I'm sacked!

Good weather for it today with a few out from JWCC . Thanks for the leadout at the end there Paul M...I just left it a bit too late. Maybe next time.

Sunday Training Ride 20th May 10am
Galeb replied to Galeb's topic in Sunday Run - Faster / Longer Bunch
Bit grim when left so deferred to a 45 mile solo windy coastal ride. Getting into Largs was tough with the headwind and some drizzle. Good TT session with a few surges up the hills . Would be intresting to hear how the 100 milers got on today.
