Members Richard Posted January 10, 2014 Members Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 The pavements outside Castle Montague are super-skitey this evening. Take care if you're leaving early, folks - the weather warnings for ice look justified. Hope you all have a great run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Richard I should have heeded your sage advice and stayed in bed. Sore neck, sore hip and rear wheel practically rubbing against frame meant my usual doomed attempt to hing onto Lugton ended early. Instead an extremely timid effort from Kilwinning followed by an examination of my rear wheel where I discovered two of my spokes had been replaced with lengths of Kraft's string cheese. Billy, no chance of test on Tuesday - I'll settle for being able to walk without pain. Happy Days! Hope everybody got home safe. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted January 11, 2014 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Sorry to hear Davie, you seemed fine till the killer kilwinning drag. Anyway davie and i made our way very cautiously into renfrew via Lochwinnoch Howwood back road which was very icy. Weather after Largs was great, unfortunately everyone well numb by then due to 20 mins sleet and rain at Bishopton. Good bunch of about 15 and we kept it rolling really from the get go. I lost my 100% at the Largs 30 this winter but at least it wasn't Judy. Turned on Strava for first time in yonks and got 2nd up the Kilwinning drag, didn't know the segment but I just happened to start habble raising before the finish line so was off the front ! Anyway normal thrash up the barrhead road with big Lewis putting in a blinder to stay clear after burnhouse to Barrhead. Colin and Andy present and correct at Lugton turn off point. Happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Committee Alan McLean Posted January 11, 2014 Committee Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Good work guys. I hoped to at least get a ride to work today but evil ice overnight put a stop to that. Should be ok for next week and might even drive to the coast to avoid any ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin McPhee Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Great run again today. Chapeau Andy for going all the way to Barrhead did you manage to reel Lewis in ? Did my usual bit of wheelsucking after Kilwinning with one abortive attempt to get on the front after blowing last week decided to manage my effort much more carefully and made it to Lugton still on.

2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted January 12, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Lewis was never caught. Awesome solo effort. I took my foot off the gas at lugton and lost Andy's wheel. Caught up with the rest if the bunch in Barrhead. Really enjoyable bunch yesterday (once the hail, wind and rain went away). I was properly cooked by the time I got back to Glasgow. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EPCC Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Maybe for me if weather good of bad turbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Maybe for me as physio has basically told me I'm a weakling with no core, people said it would hurt but didn't know it would be emotionally Will play it by ear and probably decide on Saturday morning. Common sense would probably suggest a shorter, sharper turbo might actually do me more good right now but I do like to get out on the road. Will see.

Guest George Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 I'm packing the bike in & starting a sit up club. I'm sure I have a six pack in there........somewhere. No bike for me for a bit-knee ligaments still gubbed. Hologram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Andy, If you cycle very slowly along the B778 between Stewarton and Fenwick you may find it......believe it was a Pink Lady. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Nae luck George ....are your Giro shoes for sale? Seriously though is the injury related to the curious incident of the dog on the doorstep? D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest George Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Indeed it is. When Rocky took off my thigh went one way & my lower leg went the other. Biscuit therapy is helping but when I stand up my knee makes a disturbing crackling noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted January 18, 2014 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 Well it was another belter with the pace high from Bishopton. Certainly the livliest this winetr. Taking into account the weather getting very grim and various bodies going to track on Sunday we decided on a W Kilbride route. Andy, Alan, Lewis, Sarah, Colin, Darryl, loads of JWCC connections Billy, don't let yourself descend into the hologram book of excuses, you have started down the slippy slope, My intention was to take it easier today with track tomorrow but it was just too much fun zipping along and the lure of the Largs 30 was too much with a few bodies up for it and it was worth the effort to sneak through the wheels and nip it. So tank duly emptied, just need a refill for tomorrow. Live for today I say. Darryl Gunson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
