13fm – you’re just going to have to join me singlespeeding! Saying that, the course profile is a tad 😯

Bump – The weather is looking fine for Sunday with virtually no wind (or horizontal rain) 😮

Goddammit, no excuse is good enough when you singlespeeders are about, is it?

I’ll be doing 120km on the singlespeed CX on Saturday (Milngavie to Crianlarich/Ardlui via Glen Ample, all comers welcome) so I would insist upon having gears on Sunday 😳

Looking like one swee-eet day for this; I’m, like, totally devastated I can’t make it 🙂 . Great area for pumping up the climbing reserves. Someone get photos (if it’s allowed)

There won’t be any photies Rob – I shall be wearing shorts so everyone will be blinded by my peely wally legs after winter time 😆

Oh, did you get my em about the skull cap btw, not sure if it sent?

Oh, didn’t see that Claire…. on bookface? Re-send if you can… don’t think you’ll be needing it this weekend, at least 🙂

13fm – 8:30 at your place – (probably best where I dropped you off last week)
Mustard – 8:20 outside Barnardos, Gorgie Road
DGOAB – 8:15 at the bins 🙂

Stuartie – I’ll give this a miss, we are going moontin’ instead. While the weather is this good, we’re off to do the Bienn a Ghlo loop the morn.

At the bins? Classy 🙂 *looks out the suncream*

No worries McM – hope you have you some good moontin’

Boo. I’m going to have to rain check. I’ve done 50 miles today in penance 🙁

Sorry guys, I’ve spoken to Colin but in case he didn’t get the message, I’m out too, stunning ride today though, shame the first tan-lines of the year are from my 3/4s, tan line half-way up my calf 😳

Lordy!

😯

Heh! I take it you did the full route then? There was enough climbing in the section I did with you all. Cracking ride though – nice quiet roads and good company. Any sign of Gilberto….. 🙂

Oh, and just for later reference:

I’m telling you, it was him!

Yup – did the whole thing Dan. Tough ride for early in the year and plenty of climbing after we split. No sign of Cowdenbeath’s only Mexican at the car park – hope he made it home ok!

Yeah, he had a map so hopefully he made it. Lampre man 😆

plenty of climbing after we split

The radoggair factor?

Fantastic day, thanks Stuart & everyone who came along

Edit: why can i not get that to work?!

Yep deffo him.

Cheers all a belter, although it did nearly kill me, and a special mention to my domestique radoggair 😆

Yours is far superior, shows the true girth 😯

good ride y’all, my arms are like lobsters just now though!!!.

alot of good climbs on that route, think that sportive will have a few victims.

Good too see some new faces as well, but here’s what i learnt from today

Andy needs a bling carbon bike with GEARS ( and proper size inner tubes)

bigdugsbaws is horrendously gay, uses butt plugs and used my personal butt cream 🙂

All the men need to shave their legs ( apart from me 🙂 )

Dan is a pussy who gimped out after half the course ( his excuses were poor you honour )

Gilberto wore way too much, attempted to cycle way too far for his first ride this year ( and also travelled all the way from Mexico to meet us – just made that bit up really, he was mexican but lived local )

Stuart, altho academically astute and has somewhere in the region of 35 weeks holidays a year, still could not find the time to make up a good forum name. Rubbish ( also lied about us being caught my his imaginary bike club chain gang. Woteva)

Colin – should not be alive at all, after being what can only be described as ‘robocopped’ into a back seat of a car full of twisted metal.

Clare – Apart from drinking the equivalant of an olympic sized pool, her forum name ‘dirtygirlonabike’, after alot of probing, does indeed translate from exploits which i will never mention but does not involve mud :* ( this maybe slightly untrue because she answered the question with a ‘no comment’, which translated to me as make up your own story, and in my devious head was a belter )

Me – perfect as ever, amazing looking legs and will refuse to wear suncream as long as i live in Scottishland

Thanks from me too, also nearly broke me – special thanks to Stuart for listening to me groan my way up one of the last climbs, and of course, radoggair for general awesomeness 🙂 I’ve finally got all the road grime off my legs, shame, i was growing attached to the white feet, sunburn and grime look 8)

Andy, hows the cereal eating going…i’ve scoffed a packet of biscuits so far, and an apple for good measure, cereal next!

EDIT: total drinking so far: 6 800m bottles of water, 5 pints of water/nuun/oj, and a latte (no thanks to the community centre for being shut at early o’clock on a sunday and depriving me of a second one!)

bigdugsbaws – You not meant to be studying? 🙂

dgoab – almost an entire box of frosties and a litre of milk gone, time for a shower I think.

raddogair – i’m looking into it already!

(edited due to slowness)

You not meant to be studying?

Got about 10 pages in then my incredibly short attention span got the better of me, will just have to wing it! (and stay awake)

youporn you mean 🙂

dgoab – almost an entire box of frosties and a litre of milk gone

i have some catching up to do, but i don’t think cereal for my “tea” is going to do the job! *is still really thirsty, how is that possible?!*

…could not find the time to make up a good forum name.

I know, it’s pitiful.

I’m thinking of trying out “Gary Neptune”. It lacks awesome, but it does have a certain “slightly better than average” quality. No?

i don’t think cereal for my “tea” is going to do the job!

It is the way forward; nice mix of carbs and protein – maybe!

Gary Neptune sounds gay. You need something megamarvellous like ‘godwithabike ‘ or ‘race or die mutha ‘.

Hey I thought playing the ‘homebase’ card was quite reasonable and manly, DIY and all that…. 😐

reasonable and manly

wrong !!!! , doing the full ride would of been the manliest thing to do, instead you chose the gay route, probably been told by the wife to do it.

Not married yet….I will be in 4 weeks though….hence the early finish. Nothing to do with my legs honest 🙂

reasonable and manly

Nuh, no manly points for wussing out with that excuse…especially as i’m a girlie and did the full route, even though i came close to being broken near the end on one tiny little hill

I may dream of radoggair shouting telling me nicely to get on the person in fronts wheel 😥

I may dream of radoggair shouting telling me nicely to get on the person in fronts wheel

was whipping you all in shape today!!. It was for your own good and you’ll thank me for it at your next race :).
Thought you were gonna end your sentence with ‘ I may dream of radoggair’ !! 🙂

Top

to toe…

That tide mark isn’t tan, it’s grime!

Aw, too slow to edit my post radoggair, but you can pretend i said I was going to dream about you, much like the ‘no comment’…besides, after staring at your awesome (shaved) legs, how can a girl not dream about you?! 😀

I have teh awesome white feet, need road sandals! 8)

Why didn’t I notice Druidh’s special edition Oakley Legs before?! 🙂

How’s the rehydration going dgoab? I still feel dessicated!

Recovery not going so well after 4 hours sleep last night… feel pretty rank! Haven’t done much else other than eat/drink today…You won the cereal eating competition btw :-)have you decided to get some gears after yesterday?  😉

Druidh does have very lovely feet…
