Route??
Haven't been on the bike in over a month and my belly hasn't got any smaller -

rorymichael:Route??
Haven't been on the bike in over a month and my belly hasn't got any smallerI'm thinking something short on major roads. Perhaps a blast around town and the west end. Come along, I'd love to see your lo-pro.

Definitely very much main roads only, I tried riding yesterday and was really feeling the fear.
-
Aye a wee blast through town and a loop back to the big slope would be my shout.
suggestions:
3.5 mi short route - back along Great Western Road map
or
5.4 mi long route - back via Clydeside map -
Thanks rabsda, they both look grand. Let's see what the weather's up to by then.

I would come out for a ride, but my slow, ugly bike (and slow, ugly self) would probably embarrass the rest of the group.
-
-
Ha. Well after not much bike time in four weeks I can say I felt slow this morning, and I'm always ugly.
-
I've got a huge stash of cheapo triple A's, I can take some along if you need a quick fix
-
I think I should manage for the moment.
-
No probs, they're not exactly the hardest things to come by.
-
im now a maybe im afraid as i have a proposal to get done but i may either be very productive or just give up on it so still might see you guys there.
-
otherjames:I would come out for a ride, but my slow, ugly bike (and slow, ugly self) would probably embarrass the rest of the group.
Don't worry about it, come along. I've been off the bike for 3-4 weeks and the weather will have kept almost everyone laying low, so we'll mostly be in the same boat. Room for everyone.
Also, I'll be leaving the east end @ 6pm after an appointment, but will aim to meet you at Big Slope, somewhere around 6:15pm, as it will probably take longer for the bigger crowd to amass. If you do get yourselves together and are well bored & chilly then rusty & a bunch of others have my number so give me a buzz and we can meet en route between there and town.

i have a rehersal till 9ish... what time will you guys be riding at? any ideas..

11. Euan needs to source some AAAs first thoughGoing into work at 8 so good for a wee ride and maybe a pint after. Is the plan to return to big slope for a pint?
-
The plan is generally, meet at 6pm, ride first (about 6:30pm or so), then return to Big Slope afterwards.

I agree with Joshvegas on this one. Last time i met up with a bunch of guys i'd met on the internet i was killed and buried in the woods.
-
-
Aye, it was me, NMK, krakow, 1908, otherjames and phunkymunky for the ride and Joshvegas came along to the pub afterwards. Quite a nice little ride. More of the same next week I think. It'd be good to get this going again.

Why thank you!
As soon as I have a bike consider me a regular

JAmes must have been killed and buried in the woods between these two life altering events.

I don't think i'll bother coming to fixed beer again. I went this week and it was such a hard, fast ride that the next day the end caps popped out of my front hub. As a result all my ball bearings fell out and i was left riding on a (squeaky) bare axle, with a lot of play in the steering.

I've always had my doubts about the build quality of Zipp wheels

- CommentTimeJan 14th 2010
I didn't think the picture showed enough to see it was Zipp. That's a good spot Joshvegas- only the best components on my bikes.
-
-
of course your major problem is the lack of a njs stamp
-
While you're out to the bike shop you should pick up some more orange juice.

I heard that it was fashionable to photograph bike items with an empty, orange flavour drink, bottle in the background.

SHall I start this one off?
well if I pull le digit oot ma arschloch and finish my frontwheel and bodge a leckytape for rimtape substitution and apply a new handlebar with new levers and buy some tape for them and find the left pedal I seem to have miss placed....

If you are going the leccy tape route, mind to do two layers.
-
it was more a temporary thing, but seeing as i need bartape and gloves and mudguards a trip to the bike shop is in order so i'll get some proper rimtape.

Venepuncture or Fixed Beer. It's a tough call. I'll decide tomorrow.
