2023 Subscriptions ginty001 Posted January 7, 2018 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 Met the lads in Bishy only to suffer some rear brake and front mech issues due to being frozen after being cleaned yesterday , back to base, some boiling water followed by de-Icer got me back on the road albeit 15-20 behind the rest. Thought I could hammer it to Inverkip roundabout via IBM and get there before them, but after hanging around for 15 mins I guessed I was now well behind them and just trundled round the Cloch for a bacon n egg roll in the Bluebird Cafe in Gourock, still thoroughly enjoyable though, was frozen stuff when I got home ....

2023 Subscriptions charlie p Posted January 8, 2018 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Ginty a display of Hamoc proportions . Second time in a month that bunch had to wait for u to sort out mechanicals. Both freezing days as well but yesterday was impressive. Bike washed left out in freezing conditions then brakes seize when u join us. Tell us to wait whilst u change bikes but have to change shoes as well as different cleats. We cycle about for 10 mins to keep warm only for u to return with same bike as other one had a puncture but u have now poured hot water over brakes to unseize them but surprise surprise by time u get to top of Bishy Hill they have frozen again. I see u were 3rd time lucky with the antifreeze excellent Hamoc performance George, Darryl Gunson, stevie and 2 others 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
