Paul C Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 The park is just the other side of Kilwinning and has a café. Looks nice on the webpage http://www.north-ayrshire.gov.uk/resident/leisure-parks-and-events/eglinton-park/SeeDo/Cafe.aspx Menu attached. Route via Bowfield, Barrmill, down B778, Kilwinning. On the way back I intend doing an extra loop myself to get miles up to 45 - 50 if anybody interested. Probably via BoW, Houston, GTown road. Miller Street 09:30 Weather looking OK.

2023 Subscriptions BoydJohnston Posted January 27, 2017 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I should be there if the weather holds, but may do the route at a slower pace if I struggle on the Bowfield climb again or if there are any other slower riders looking for company.

Members Richard Posted January 29, 2017 Members Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 There was ice on untreated surfaces in Glasgow tonight, especially down by the Clyde. Mind how you go if you're out early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Mac Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Just been out, lots of ice on my way to a main road, so too dangerous for me I'm afraid. Take care if you are going out!! Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul C Posted January 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Had to walk 100 m from house to get on gritted road! After that no problem with ice. Graeme, Boyd and me had a good steady run to Eglington Park for café stop. Café is excellent with lots of space for a bunch invasion. Scrambled egg roll was very good and Graeme was impressed with the amount of bacon in his roll (Chung please note! ). On the way back it had warmed up a bit and the sun was starting to break through. Towards the end I peeled off to do an extra loop and got 52 miles in the bag. Darryl Gunson, EricL, Richie Cross and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graemew Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Good ride and managed just under 50 miles. Have to say thanks for the company and the coffee stop was worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions BoydJohnston Posted January 29, 2017 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 I had 52.8 on the clock by the time I got home. Good run and the roads were fine - though we stuck to the main roads until the weather warmed up a bit, which didn't take very long. Thanks to Paul and Graeme for taking it easy on me.
