Big Al Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Ah, but with your new setup you'll be able to go faster, and race yourself fit!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I'm in. Alex, Welcome. We normally leave Miller street, Johnstone at 09:00. If you live in Bishopton/Erskine area then we have another meeting point southside of Erskine Bridge at 09:35 (= longer lie in bed!). The distance from club to club is about 100 miles with an average speed of 16 - 17 mph so hope you are comfortable with that. Cafe stop at Strachur.

2023 Subscriptions thejanullrichdietplan Posted May 28, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hope to make it How about going over the old Military road that is next to the Rest? It was resurfaced last year for when the main road is closed with landslides and it looks like a decent climb and will be quieter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexb Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Thanks Paul. Fine with that pace and distance and look forward to it. Erskine bridge meet for me and another 30 mins in bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al yuille Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 How many times you guys going to ride that route ? Try this. Quieter roads, better climbs , lunch at Kames hotel etc etc http://www.mapmyride.com/gb/dunoon-sct/tigna-strachur-ardentinny-route-16739901 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Cross Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I'm easily pleased but Al's route looks good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Is he coming no so ignore him Also it's another 40 miles including the ferry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Al, the route was posted and shall be done. If you have an alternative route then post it up as a sunday bunch run. It would make a change from deciphering Billy's posts. Usual depart guys 09.00 from Miller St, circa 09.30 at the bridge. Pace determined by bodies and route as per but not a 15mph dawdle, most of you are comfy in the bunch cruising in the high teens. Alex welcome aboard. Will do the introductions on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al yuille Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Ha - not coming ! Will be riding the 3pistes. You guys need some new routes though. It would attract riders. Enjoy the Strachur cafe ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
