Not gonna make it that day unfortunately.

Not going to make it out this morning.  Enjoy

Sounds like a Largs run is in order... coastal route?

Thanks Alan for hoddin' up & timing.  Good times today!! Well done Stu!

I'm not gonna make this one unfortunately.  

What time Davie?  9am?

I'll ride

Great event!  Thoroughly enjoyed it.  Thanks to partner Stu - some sterling efforts!!  And to John and the holders.  Great photos from Gary too!!  Same time same place next year then

Thoroughly enjoyed that.  Haven't felt stronger on the bike this year than tonight.  Unfortunately it wasn't to be for Cedric... hope you and bike are ok!!!  

Riding with Stu

I should be good to help with hodding up this week

Going to miss tomorrow as I have some messages to do up the city centre in the morning.  Will be on the bike though so will still get some miles in.  Weather looks ok!  Enjoy

Cant make this week but intend to ride the rest with Colin Sales

God help me!!!  😜

Seeing this article and wondering what local area's is...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-49080945

Thinking the hill up to Paisley Golf Club and the Elliston climb must be up there...  where else would you say is steep?

Second best time.  Need to find another 31secs from my PB to get under 23mins.  Not impossible.  Perhaps I should lay off the doughnuts lol.

Thanks Alan for haudin' up & timing

Yep 

I have called the cafe so they know we're coming.  Think that's advance enough notice lol!

Clubrooms 9am.  Erskine Bridge 9:30am

Head to Garelochhead the usual way, but turn left and head down to Kilcreggan via Rosneath.  Cafe at Kilcreggan (remember it might be slow - someone remind me to call ahead!).  Then we head to Coulport and up the Coulport drag, back to the naval base but then turn up Glen Fruin...  we'll then head back to base via Balloch the usual way (option for additional cafe/coffee in Balloch or even McDs if anyone requires it).

135km.  PVCC doing a similar route, so let's make sure we're at the cafe first (for additional bragging rights, lol) so when we get to the bridge we won't be hanging about!

I have what you need pop round and you can borrow it 

plus you should have cleaned the old sealant 

Cheers Billy.  There wasn't much of the old sealant left as it's been repairing the same wee puncture for a few weeks now.  Got other plans tomorrow morning...  are you around in the afternoon or on Monday?

Bought new sealant. Deflated the tyre, took valve core out, put new sealant in, spun the wheel to circulate the sealant, attached the pump, it won't inflate 🤷‍♂️. Thinking it's maybe not quite seated right?  

Google says I need a compressor to put a bit of ooomph in when pumping it up but I don't trust Google and I don't have a compressor.  Called Dooleys who have one and could seat it for me and get it pumped up with their compressor.    Does this sound right?  Did I go wrong somewhere?  Perhaps I shouldn't have fully deflated the tyre?

There's no stopping Cedric!   Another top result!

Yeah Chung 8:30 clubrooms see you there.  Possibly 8:32 going by my recent timekeeping lol

Change of plan.  Got a tubeless mechanical, won't be out unless I can fix it this afternoon.  Tyre not inflating at all and sealant comes out.  Might not be seated quite right but thought it looked ok to me tbh 

Yeah Chung 8:30 clubrooms see you there.  Possibly 8:32 going by my recent timekeeping lol

Hoping to make it.
