Guest GEORGE DONNELLY Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Been checking the weather forecast & it looks to be ok, on the whole. Trickiest bit likely to be getting from my front door to the main road. Andy has text me to say he has just come through Kilwinning and the roads are perfect. So, provided it doesn't take a massive turn for the worse overnight, I'll be out. Hope to see tout le monde in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted January 26, 2013 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Totally grubbed after excellent bogs bunch today. Improved on last week but still popped a couple of miles out from Lugton. Charlie and Hugh were keeping it mixed up and looking very strong today. Good show from JWCC with Charlie, Hugh, Colin, Ian and myself. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted February 2, 2013 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 After negotiating ice and slush with more luck than poor Charlie, got the bogs bunch roon the coast. Belter of a day. I have now learned, 1) returning to track league after 2 weeks is painful, but in a short sharp manageable way. 2) returning to full bhoona bogs bunch after 2 weeks, well, one word, excruciating. Andy, George and Alan all going very well and keeping up the JWCC contingent. Now in semi zombie state, but a happy zombie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GEORGE DONNELLY Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Andy & I got blasted out the back earlier than in previous weeks but consoled ourselves with these facts 1) several were jettisoned before us. Only the hard men remained. 2) the pace was noticeably faster than previous weeks due to the return of a certain skinny wee zombie. 3) it doesn't matter if you get dropped-it's a great workout &, in a way only cyclists appreciate, GREAT FUN!!!! 4) we are both very handsome, in fact, a group of ladies screamedM "Aaaaaah Aaaah it's Bros!!!! Aaaaah!!!!" 75% of the above statements are true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jannza Posted February 2, 2013 Administrators Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I passed 3 large bunches heading west on A8 on my way to Bellahouston this morning. How long would it take to get from Bogs to Port? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Committee Alan McLean Posted February 2, 2013 Committee Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Jann Bogs to Pottery Street one hourish (I know because I have ambushed there). Exciting day with a slide on the ice on the back roads in a rush to get to bishy. Met Chung et al. before joining the bunch and then punctured before Westferry. Solo TT along Westferry and a short cut by Spango put me ahead of the bunch and I rejoined in Inverkip. Tempo was raised into Largs where I left to go up Haylie and another TT to get home. Absolutely cooked. Good turnout again and lovely views to Arran but slush even on the coast roads. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeling the benefit of the faster miles. Lost Gorgeous on Glennifer Braes. I thought the Ice Monsters had got him. Oh how i was wrong. How we laughed.

Guest GEORGE DONNELLY Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Ah, erm, what Andy alludes to is that he descended like a stone while I minced down the braes, he went straight on while I turned left as I live on the left. A concerned Andy then turned back to look for me as he was concerned I may be lying slightly dead somewhere. So I was drawing my bath while Andy rode all the way back up the braes in search of myself. Sorry, Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted February 2, 2013 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 It was very funny George! There's no need for any apologies whatsoever. All part of eing a team. I couldn't figure out what had happened and it was a relief that you hadn't been kidnapped by any Al Qaeda unsavouries that might have been loitering around the Braes :-)) Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
