2023 Subscriptions iain couttie Posted May 5, 2013 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 billy you dont do climbing, because you trained on the same hills as sky does not make you a climber.i dont know where the 60 miles comes from surely by the time you cycle down and back it will be close to 100. this does not allow for the extra 2 kilo of tubes each person has to carry to keep you going. iain ps count me in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Iain If you ride down its about 85 I think Re tubes new tyres GP 400s need to buy some CO2 Andy. There is a nice coffee stop but I always think its better to get it at the ferry so you don't miss it Of course all weather dependent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GEORGE DONNELLY Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 It'll be fine. Couple of bananas in your pocket will get you round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GEORGE DONNELLY Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Def more than 85. It's about 20 miles each way just to gourock. Will be pushing a hundred, all told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Also it's a democracy so if we want to stop we stop just mind your heads when I chuck the rattle out the pram Iain It's flat apart from the hills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Cross Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Billy....my Lezyne pump is good and weighs less than co2. A few of us have the pump in rear pocket and don't think one has fallen out yet. Would've liked the C11 but will be in Dumfries for my 40th...yes, I know!! Me..40!!

al yuille Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Before Martin gets in , it's called Beallachandrain. Cafe stop Otter Ferry or Tighnabruaich. We can easily catch Billy on the way back to Dunoon. martin and Darryl Gunson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2024 Subscriptions Darryl Gunson Posted May 6, 2013 2024 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I'd be up for this. I also like the idea of a stop at Tighnabruaich (Kames Hotel is good). Just hope I'm over the lurgy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
