ebish Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hopefully this'll be my first appearance. Picking up a new bike today(fri), so barring any teething problems, I'm planning to be join you on Sunday. I've done about a handful of 30mile runs on my own on the old Crosstrail in the past couple of weeks and so far no disasters. Optimism is all! Ewan.

John Malcolm Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Ewan I can meet you at Red Smiddy at 0815 and cycle to the Club Rooms. I am travelling from Millfield John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebish Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 John, That'd be great and really helpful to a first-timer. 8.15 it is. I'll be in a red top, black bike, looking confused and probably swearing at my new cleats. Ideally I'll be upright. Ewan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebish Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Thanks for the welcome. A brilliant day yesterday, really enjoyed it. Legs battered this morning but that's got to be good. Hopefully see you on the train to Rothesay. Can't believe I agreed to that but there you go... Special thanks to Pat and John for the wheel home, I needed that! Ewan.

Pat3 Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Thanks to everyone for making me welcome on Sunday, I've just about recovered enough to post. Enjoyed Sunday much more than I thought I would although it was hillier, longer and much faster than I expected and riding with two hands on the bars and no mallet takes a bit of getting used to. Good luck to you all in Rothesay this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
