Out for a superb wee blast in almost perfect conditions last night!

Myself, Tracy, Stewart and Ben headed up through Cambu woods and then over via the bombhole, Chemical Ali and Tinker's Loan to give TC and Ben their first taste of N3's finest trails. It was dry, fast and rooty-tooty-tastic.

Judging by the grins on everyone's faces at the bottom of the trail, I think we all had a good time!  8)

So, tomorrow......

Well, I'm keeping a leery eye on the weather. The last forecast I saw had it starting off damp but improving as the morning wore on. So if it's not absolutely blowing a hoolie and tipping it down, I'll see you all at Costa's, (across from Graham Tiso in Stirling town centre) for a 9.30am kickoff.

Beagy  ;)

p.s. Mr Barton, if you're not away on your holidays, could you activate Ben's online account for him? He's sent you a couple of emails to no avail unfortunately.
"Ship?" he called. "Yup?" said the ship. "Do what I do." The ship thought about this for a few milliseconds and then, after double checking all the seals on its heavy-duty bulkheads, it began slowly, inexorably, in the hazy blaze of its lights, to sink to the lowest depths. -Douglas Adams

Not seen any emails from Ben, but as I've damaged my eyes I can't see much! 20 mins viewing pleasure each day at present.
I didn't earn the right to wear that top...I was the only one it fitted!

Eeek! 20 minutes of internet 'viewing pleasure' each day would make anyone go blind. Get well soon dude, and next time you go to scratch an itch, take the fork out of your hand first.  ;) When I see Ben I'll try and find out what's going on. He reckons he's sent 2 emails with no response, but he was also muttering something about sending them through Xcel as his laptop wouldn't allow direct linking. Not sure what he was on about. As soon as he started talking about computers and I realised it wasn't about shooting the dirty, backstabbing Helghast, (Killzone), I switched off.

Now, has anyone else noticed the big shiny yellow thing in the sky? I'm going to take advantage of this wee nice spell and head out for a Tour de Torwood tonight. If anyone fancies joining me, post up and I'll meet you at the main gates of Plean Country Park around 7pm.

Hi

I'm going to head out for a spin tonight and enjoy the small break in the weather. Not going to make it over to Plean Country Park but planning to ride from Dunblane about 7pm and hopefully make it up Dumyat.
If anybody fancies joining me then let me know.

Cheers
Derek.

Cheers to Beagy, Dougie and John for sharing the 'groundhog day' experience in Plean & Torwood last night. Had a great time ;D

Those branches still chasing you John?

I'll be in bed crying after having my collar bone put back into my shoulder joint after it popped out on Dumyat on Tuesday.  I say 'popped out', I did crash just before so it was kind of my fault, although I blame the tyres.
the KKK took my baby away

Sorry to hear that Paul. I hope you have a speedy recovery.
I have a turbo trainer somewhere in my garage you can borrow if you want.
