Committee Alan McLean Posted November 29, 2014 Committee Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Iain, no wonder you found the Barrcraigs run hard, Archibald et fils led out bonkers fast finale from Greenacres to Howwood. I would love to see what they have for breakfast. Probably Weetabix AND porridge. Â Congratulations on the extremely sensible pacing (much to Paul's disgust) which ensured the bunch stuck together until the final habble.

2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted November 29, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Paul and Charlie  Up at 7 bells, had breakfast, sleeping again by 7-45. Afterburn of a vomiting virus last weekend. Wife says she'll sign my certificate for me. Hoping I'll ut tomorrow with the bunch. Looking forward to next week. Sounds like a pretty dramatic time after leaving largs. Mad head the ball driver! Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted December 6, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Ritchie Provan & Colin were met by self and Iain just as they were leaving bogs. I was on lash last night and took me a while to get things together so apologies to Iain for keeping him waiting. Upside was that Iain got a lot of PBS on georgetown rd on way to Renfrew. We then had delights of a headwind and heavy rain all way to Largs. Pretty painful. Scott from Inverclyde velo joined us just after skelmorlie . Hurrah a bit less time at front. We hit Largs looking like drowned rats. Met Billy mac there. He had ploughed a lone furrow there from Red Smiddy. Chapeau. Billy went up haylie brae as he had an urgent meeting with tommy Craig. Billy was in Alan Sugar mode. The rest of us carried on to west Kilbride picking Andy Gumley up en route. At Dalry Andy left us and we took kilbirnie rd back. Tough day on bike but hot soak in bath after was delightful Hope the shirkers are able to join us next week robster82 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin McPhee Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Made my return from Xmas shopping duties. Like the old air pilot had to go out or I would have missed my slot ! Otherwise think I would have been in bed with a copy of the Broons. Anyway glad I made it out and cheers to the other guys for making such a miserable day weather wise so enjoyable. One rule 5 ride done ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexb Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Football was on. Spectating was miserable painful and painfully miserable. Good effort going out in that guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Porteous Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Not much to add, enjoyed the ride in a strange way & I actually felt quite good! Sat here with two hoodies on now though. Needless to say the bike isn't getting cleaned today. Billy should be awarded the VC for making it to Largs on his own, or was it foolishness rather than bravery...

Guest EPCC Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Stupidity Was too cold to wait at bus stop so thought if I just carried on you lot would catch me Half way along the coast into driving rain and a block headwind I realised my mistake got to Largs had a coffee and waited Went up the Healy and meat up with some one that offers me a wheel but I was pedalling squares by then limped home with an unusually high heart rate Think my man flu is still hanging on, out next week though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted December 6, 2014 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Late leaving so made my way up Brisbane Glen to meet the bunch in Greenock. Punctured and with only half a canister of air descended to Largs. What followed at a 2 1/2 hour tour of north ayrshire. Met the most miserable bunch of renfrews coming in to Fairlie. Good to have human company to Dalry. Took the road to Saltcoats then home. 105k in the bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
