Paul C Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Run down to Troon same route as last time - about 65 miles. Cafe stop at the Blueberry. Those wanting to do a few more miles can tack on a loop at the end (Barrhead or whatever). Miller street 09:30. Forecast is dry but strong SW wind so behind on the way back!

Paul C Posted January 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Andy - are cycling up to the club from West Kilbride to meet us or will you intercept us somewhere? If so, our outbound route is Bowfield, Lugton, Dunlop, Stewarton, Kilmaurs, Crosshouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted January 22, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Cheers Paul. Will probably cycle up from WK. Still 0930 meet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted January 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Yes Andy 9:30 Miller street. It will be good to see again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted January 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 WARNING Just back from walking the dog. There are long stretches of sheet ice on the track from Lochwinnoch towards Kilbirnie. Don't think it will be gone by tomorrow morning unless the forecast overnight rain melts it away. I assume it will be the same in the other direction towards Johnstone so I will take the main road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions iain couttie Posted January 25, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 I am going to do some hills this morning, not been out for a while and the thought of cycling to Troon in rubbish weather does not appeal. Forecast better for Monday so will probably skive and do some miles then. Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Came out got half way along to club rooms then my front hub snapped carried on to club rooms nobody there so went home Turbo latter for me and a trip to wheel craft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions iain couttie Posted January 25, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Went to club room as we'll , did a couple of hours on the hills. Glad I didn't do the run I had problem with the wind, I had none and Mother Nature had plenty. Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Cross Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Ah, nae luck McB Think 8 of us started. Pretty awful headwind and our numbers slowly dwindled and a route change of Dalry onto the BB was made. I soon found myself left with Alex, Geo and Iain. Legs had only done 35 miles but felt like 100 and my mental toughness left me as I was getting dropped uphill leaving Dalry towards WK. The lure of nearby home was too great and I threw in the towel and pottered home. I think at this point I may officially be doing your medium LBL. Full one seems an impossible task just now.

DavieB Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Think positive Richie still a long ways to go before chucking the towel in - you have probably done more road miles than me. My brief dalliance with the bunch coincided with a snapped chain and plenty of splintering so not the best day for a saunter to Troon. Highlight of the day was an interesting snippet of info in that a certain Paisley buddie had just acquired a new 'cross bike Can it really be true?

DavieB Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Better luck than me then.....I've been "learning" how to do it for the last 4 years to no avail. Disc or canti's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
