DavieB Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 After the packed schedule of George's Festive Rides (?) Sunday approaches and with the weather seemingly turning mild rural roads should be ok. Propose extended sewing bee route with cafe stop in Stewarton. Sensible pace planned.

2023 Subscriptions Codg1e Posted January 2, 2019 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Sounds good.  Shall we try that new cafe which used to be ‘Jacks’ in Stewarton? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions George Posted January 2, 2019 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 I’ll forgive Mr B for lashing out at me on a public forum. He’s a massive pie and can’t help himself. Anyway, I’m a maybe. Depends how much/little  I do on Saturday.For those who don’t know Mr B, his definition of rural is muddy and pothole strewn-on the bits where there are actually stretches of tarmac.

Members John C Posted January 3, 2019 Members Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Hope to be out if I can get the winter bike sorted; if not may need to be the summer bike and sit at the back (no change there then...) if that is ok with the Faster / Longer Bunch committee. GlenIrving 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlenIrving Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 Will be out, what sort of distance are we talking davie, need to get the miles up for April Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted January 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 Glen I'm useless at estimating distance but in the range of 60 miles I guess. I would head to Stewarton using your route via glennifer braes and neilston. Miles can be tacked on at the end if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted January 4, 2019 Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 I might turn out for this one or at least part of it - may bale at Stewarton and head for Eaglesham Moor. Are stabilisers still allowed in the main bunch for returnees???? Could someone post up some sense of the what the route is as I might meet you on the road rather than trek into Miller Street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be good to see you back out on the bike with the Bunch! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Codg1e Posted January 4, 2019 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 Be good to get a rough route plotted incase I'm on the front and miss or take wrong turn.  Is it along the lines of... up the Bowfield, Lugton, Torranyard, Stewarton, Dodside Road to Barrhead but turning towards Neilston and back to Johnstone via Gleniffer Braes/Auchenlodment?

DavieB Posted January 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 Mark, Colin...the route out from Johnstone will mirror Glens recent run. I am unable to post a link but he has inserted a Strava map in the post titled 23rd December..we do NOT head up the bowfield. After Stewarton we will revert to sewing bee route of which I am not that familiar tbh and we can improvise a bit with regards to the return to Johnstone depending on general consensus..thinking the high ground above Shilford on the opposite side think this may include what others call "Dalek Hill" (?).
