2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 17, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Yes. I think this would be a nice ride anyway, but good prep for Italy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 17, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Note Campbell's post in 'Audax'. Entry closes on 23rd. Anyone fancy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Long steady miles with some hills thrown in could be very easily persuaded. Max ave speed 18mph., seems entirely reasonable. M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Cross Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 What will the route be like? There's a max ave speed?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 17, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Ritchie, see the link in Campbell's post in the Audax section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions ginty001 Posted April 17, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Would love to, but in St Andrews for the weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 21, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Talking to Billy, Charlie, George, Marko and it seems as though there is some demand for a long day in the saddle. This is instead of the trip to Cumbria which would have been a very long day, or two if we'd stayed overnight. There are quite a few doing the Drumlanrig the week after, so a 'sportive reliability' makes sense. We'd talked about doing the Audax, but it doesn't look as though we're organised enough to all enter. So, how about a run that follows the Audax route, but with our own tweaks and shortcuts? Basically I'm proposing that we start at the club and head across the bridge, Glen Fruin, Rest and be Thankful, Hell's Glen, Head to the Kames hotel or similar for lunch, over the hills and back to Dunoon. Note, this will be a steady ride with no racing allowed! (apart from when we allow it ) Show of hands please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Darryl, Sounds like a grand run .....can't do Sunday but wondering if a Saturday outing is possible. If not no worries as I will do Saturday run instead. Cheers, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Richard Posted April 21, 2012 Members Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Davie, I ought to be able to keep you company on Saturday if no-one else is available. I don't have any Sundays off between now and the Nove Colli. I've had another enforced three-week lay-off due to illness - Flanders flu strikes again in April - so I'm starting from scratch, but ought to be back into it properly by this time next week.

Richie Cross Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Is it a definite that no-one's doing the audax? Just when me and Jody were thinking of trying the huge (for us) mileage! Maybe we'll still do it at our own pace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Members chung Posted April 21, 2012 Life Members Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Hi all, I'm actually planning on doing this, so will register later on to get a place! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I am in Daryls suggestion dont see the need to pay for a long run either day suits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 22, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Thats: 2 doing the Audax 2 for a Saturday ride 5 for Sunday clubrun. If the 5 could go on Saturday, that would make a decent compact bunch. But I'm happy to go with either day. What about the other usuals? Greg, Alan mclean, Duncan, Andy,Colin, Tom, Paul C etc?

2023 Subscriptions Tom Hill Posted April 22, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Sunday is the day allocated in the Hill household for all things cycling.

2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted April 22, 2012 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Ok. I think this is a Sunday run. Sorry Davie.
