2023 Subscriptions Ramsay Posted February 11, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Not going to make it afterall! Will try again next week, although as the month goes on, the chances of me being able to do the distance diminishes! Not touched a bike for yet another two week! Enjoy tomorrow. Hope the ice stays away. Cheers, R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted February 12, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Remember fast bunch should be leaving at 1000 not 0945. David Eh? Sez who? It was 9.45 last week. What's the reason for the change? We didn't catch anyone last week and the time gap was 15 mins over a longer distance. I don't recall anyone complaining about the start time.

Guest Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 We left at 10 last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions David Thomson Posted February 12, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 The last 2 years I've been doing the reliability's its only been the first one that leaves at 0945. We didn't catch anyone because we weren't organised towards a proper Chase. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Leaving now so will be there for 09.45. Will leave it to others to decide departure time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Wish I had left at 09:45 youse might have caught me by the top of Bowfield hill..... D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Committee Alan McLean Posted February 12, 2012 Committee Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Left with 0930 bunch. Had TWO punctures at Greenacres. Waited for fast group but they all took another route to Lugton and missed me. I got as far as Fenwick solo and had to stop because I can't remember the route after that. That's the THIRD year running I've waited for a bunch at the M77 underpass due to a mechanical/flat. I have been to Georgia and California but I've never been to Moscow on a reliability run.

2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted February 12, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Another good run today. Thanks to the 10am group. Also a big thanks to Jan for opening up and making some lovely soup. There is still some I'm the fridge from last week courtesy of Andy. It's in cartons, so should be ok to supplement next week's refreshments. See y'all next Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 PS Davie, you looked a wee bit sore. ?Good run on Saturday with the Kooriers? Aye and aye...discretion over valour today. If I had continued I may have still been out in the fog. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Absolutely scunnered. The 10am group took off in single pace line formation, which was fine, until we got to Bowfield and the pace didn't seem to slow any. From there I was in the red and then the lights went out (just as the fog came in) Got lost in Ayrshire and I'm sure I ended up on the set of "The Scheme" in Kilmarnock. Took a circuitous route home through Lugton & Barrmill and up the track. I have been training and have lost a wee bit of weight so dunno what to blame other than a lack of natural ability. Maybe that sums it up. I'm just going to have to hammer it this week in an attempt to get back up to par. Whatever happened to Hincapie?

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted February 12, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Yes a fine run today - apologies for being anti social afterwards but I had pressing duties with daughter just out of hospital. George, I'm sure you just need a rest - take it easy for this week and you'll be back stronger. Davie - there were a few sore legs about today after the bogs bunch, rest up for a day or two - it'll be worth it - chapeau for having a go both days.

Mark O Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Fantastic run this morning, nice to get off the flat and into them thar hills. Haven't seen the Ayrshire countryside looking so resplendant for a long time!!!!!!!! A right good pace on from the get go for the 10.00 bunch and my legs are feeling it now. Vote of thanks to masterchef Jan for the soup, just what was needed. Good to see some strangers back in the fold. Hincapie, hills hurt and never get easier just faster! Only advice I can give you is find a smaller gear and spin faster rather than grind up them. Might just have been one of those days it just doesn't work. Take PMcD advice too, ease off this week and get some quality recovery in. No worries though, next week is back to the flat for the most part with only Sinclair Street and the run in from Langbank going up hill. Natural territory for those rarest of species, the greater spotted Donnelly and lesser cranked MacBagel. More of the same next week.

Guest Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 thanks for the kind words, guys. My analyst said not to dwell on it & my therapist agrees. I just have to regroup (if it's possible to regroup with yourself) then lose twice my bodyweight. Simples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 George Even if you lost three times your body weight you will still be crap on the hills but Sinclair street is right up your street as its big gear grinding Big George Hincapie will love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
