Committee Alan McLean Posted October 5, 2014 Committee Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Me and a Jet going. When will we see Davie's new tech drenched uber X-machine? Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Next Sunday, for most of the day it will no doubt be behind you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted October 5, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Possibly! How'd you go today Davie? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 ''Twas fun as always, tried a more a measured effort rather than killing myself. Unfortunately far too measured to get anywhere near the front, and this is forgetting the first twenty or so who are in a different league. Something approaching 140 riders in the v40 race which rendered the first lap a write off as you hear the gun going but have too wait for about 30 seconds to start pedalling, followed by carnage 300 metres up the track. My bike remains the star in our partnership. Looking forward too next week, hopefully your wounds will have healed by then. BTW Have you seen yon YouTube video called "The Ridge"? 😛Don't be getting any ideas now? Crikey, some selection of smileys to choose from.

KennyS Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Lusia signed up for first foray into Youth A's Sadl, her father may have to wait a bit longer to venture into the V40's and Davie B's reports are not giving me much hope either :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Committee Alan McLean Posted October 7, 2014 Author Committee Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 On Sunday I shall be mainly riding in the V50's sucking up slurry from the back wheels of the juniors and women, at least for one lap, until they have all passed me and I can have a nice sit down with a cup of tea, a biscuit and a bulb catalogue.

Committee Alan McLean Posted October 12, 2014 Author Committee Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Lots of Jets but I only counted me, Davie and Mike in the older races. Lovely sunny weather, racing in summer kit but can't be long until the clag descends. Great course with twisty singletrack, couple of bonkers climbs and fairly dry.

Committee Alan McLean Posted October 12, 2014 Author Committee Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 I should add 1. Davie's new cross bike is lovely and when I left he was up in the top dozen after two laps. 2. The number of V40's was mental. About 100 starters, it was like a wildebeest migration, black to the horizon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieB Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Alan, Your bike appraisal skills are up to scratch but you need to learn how to count. A top 20 showing for your good self is very good going. That red blaze hill is truly horrible and my lap times fell off a cliff at the end, but still fun. Hopefully some more wheelers out at Irvine.

Think my CX season is over before it started. Physio assessment on Thursday. I'm hoping for Renfra bunch 25th October. May come down to irvine if you need a pit stop. You want a spare bike?
