Also I fancy doing a nightrun over the ridgeroad of the garletons, but it would have to be on a clear night, i don’t mind the cold too much but i recon it would be a **** nightmare in the rain and wind.
I know, I know… MTFU.
I live in Pencaitland and head out all the time. I can’t always make the organised rides due to my shifts, but the ones I’ve been on are good fun. I’ll start posting before I head out, the only thing being it might be a wee bit short notice for some folk. My pace isn’t as fast as some as my skill/fitness levels are still being worked on, but its always a laugh. right now I might be heading out on Monday or Tuesday night, dunno where yet though. But I’ll have to wait and see about herselfs plans and the weather.
where are you based pugson?
I was out last night for a pedal with only a bar mounted magicshine. I was way slower than my usual slow pace, but i still had loads of fun. I didn’t really mind the occasional blind spots but i recon a wee torch mounted on my lid would make a difference.
I went out last night for a wee pedal with a mate. http://www.sports-tracker.com/#/workout/yodagoat/68rhs2uav5i92oq4
The woods were pretty muddy but it was good fun. my first time round those woods at night. I struggled a bit with the mud but hopefully the arrival of new tyres with sort this.
Looks pretty good. I’m interested to see what TJ’s recipe looks like too. If you’re bringing both yer lights out tomorrow it’ll be good to see your setup.
G, weather forecast for tomorrow is dry so that could sort the trails out even more! 😀
I recon I could make 6.30 too.
G – Do you wrap the batter for your light in a wee bag or anything?
That was like me and my mates when we were 16-18! Same sort of crashes and everything. This was what we watched the hardcore of the time do http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wJjZ34ZQl0
What a laugh!
I’ll be taking the extra 3 years. Not the end of the world for me. I spoke to cycle scheme on the phone and it made things a bit clearer. I also asked them what would happen to returned bikes. they said they would be given to charity or disposed of. i asked if cycle scheme would be selling any but they said no.
I’m home around 5 on thursday, i’d only need time to get some food in me as I live falling distance from the pub. No takers for a ride on wednesday as well as thursday?
sounds good. We can head through pencaitland woods then through saltoun estate to saltoun big w
oods if folk prefere that to the road? Anyone want to come out on wednesday too?
I recon I can go on thursday night too. What about Saltoun Woods? it will be pretty muddy but its pretty good fun.
I’m hopefully going out on wednesday night with a mate as well, so I’ll be able to scope out the tracks. Everyone is welcome to join us.

So is my bike going to cost me alot more than I thought? I was told 5% by cycle scheme so I figures at the end of my loan period I’d pay an extra £50. My cyclescheme is over 1 year.
