"Hey Glasgow - group ride starts at Ashtree House Hotel. 9 Orr Square. Paisley, Scotland. See you there at noon!!"

So who's going from the STW massive... ?

He's over the pond for the Tour of Ireland so perhaps he's popped over to stock up on Buckfast ?

I've normally finished my ride by noon and I'm thinking about going out on another one. I *knew* I was better than him.

I saw this last night......no way can I make it up to Glasgow. Gutted! Has to be a once in a lifetime thing to do.

Those of you that do go....reports/pictures etc would be good.

Would absolutely love to go but a 20 mile ride into work then a ride with Lance and a 20 mile ride home would kill me ๐Ÿ˜‰

Where abouts in Paisley is the ride starting just in case I escape from the office (can't access twitter at work)- any other ride details such as route, distance, etc.

I'm just about to leave the office in Glasgow, ride home on the commuter, change, get the road bike and head for Paisley!

Lance-schmance, its a boss-sanctioned bike ride during work time!

(I knew getting him into riding would pay off)

yeah me too. I'm not going, though. Too much else to do. If he wants to meet me he'll have to come to Edinburgh next time ๐Ÿ˜‰

Plus, I went out training last night and my legs are tired, so wouldn't want to embarrass myself by letting him beat me.

Etc

'pishin' wet midweek day'

It's not pishing it down in the south side of Glasgow, greyish sky and a light shower about 10 minutes ago. Doubt Paisley is any different.

Can someone please le me know the ride details. Thanks.

think about it Gary_M they have now publicly announced on the radio that there will be lots of very nice expensive bikes floating around Paisley at about noon, the local scumbags will have a field day

anyone who stops at a shop to buy juice or snacks or batterys for a camera etc will return to more than likly find they no longer have there bike
