[Closed] 13thfloor, CX frenzy - it's the Edinburgh Wednesday Night lycra fun plan

Mojo!

Hoping to make it if my audit is done on time, just gotta get home and swap bikes. I'm feeling the need to get out on the bouncy bike.

6 or half past then, eh?

Bouncy it is then. even if it's mincecoretothemax. Makes for good resistance training. Me n Mustard will show you noobs how much heat we are packin'.

Knobbly tyres then?

Lycra longs, no backpack and gearless coming at ya...
Pretty fly for a white guy,.

Never mind all that.

which pub?

Pub? With all the lycra is must be CC Blooms

Canny Mann - I'm sure they'd love a bunch of bikers in there, being so welcoming an all!

On a more serious note; Cloisters is a good bet for an ale if we're ending up Bruntsfieldish or the Caley Sample Rooms 'cos it's my local 😀

God I miss Edinburgh.

Sorry guys, was out defining terms on my current 'relationship' last night. 😕

There are many roots and little jumpy bits, plus some mud, along the way, so I'd recommend an MTB to be honest. I'm taking mine.

6.30pm at the shop again?

uh huh. thats the ticket.

I'll try and join ye tonight if that's OK. I work at KB, so I'll just look for you on the trails I think.

Where do you envisage the initial penetration of the tail system? Bottom of Blackford Hill by the lake from the sound of Iain's description? If I miss you then nae bother.

initial penetration of the tail system

😯

You meant "trail system" right?

...still not much better really!

But yes, initial penetration shall be by the duck pond, with the gradual steppy climb alongside the wall to the observatory, then the grassy climb to the summit. When will you be there GL?

Just before 7 I guess, if you're coming direct across toon from the Bike Chain. Be about 25 mins for ye?

Had planned a diversionary lap around Arthur's Seat, through Hunter's Bog, down to the Pollock Roundabouts, and then back around on some cheeky singletrack at the edge of the park. Can you do 7:30?

Yes, no problem.

Hey well, with the Marathons on the Onion it looks like I'll be taking an early bath 😉

Enjoy!

It looks like I'll be able to make this one 🙂 See you at TBC for 6:30.

Yo.

Whose Blackburn pump did I end up with in my rucsac, Sharki's?

Yes Ian. Mine 🙂
Pop it the tbc if your passing.

Will do!
