[Bibio]

anyone quick question - designing a rideout for next year

do you think its acceptable to give them a circular route or take them up a road and return on the same stretch of road. some people will noy have ridden the route before and there will be some who are in the country for the first time.

circle is always best as around every corner is something new \\:D/

i know 3 are a definite peterco, blueflame and me. think chucca and jen are intrested.

[andrewsmith]

cool

Be a laugh as long as the weather doesn't close in. It facking scary when is does.
The worst I've been up there's been 50ft in front, say we decended very quickly into Alston

[Bibio]

i stay in scotland m8. scary roads and rain are like water off a ducks back lol

[andrewsmith]

I'll give you's a 10 min head start then
I'll catch you by the cafe.

Hows the bike going your end

[Bibio]

bike is feckin assume.. i love this one to bits. the suspension and sitting position is way better than the last one which makes it a pleasure to ride. if i could i would be out all the time its adictive :-)

your prob right about the 10min start. i'm old and slow these days.

[andrewsmith]

Fair enuf mate its set-up for your as much as mine is.

Its not that I average 55-60 mph to the Summit from Alston, and bits of it are first gear even on a SV. I've seen thou's struggle to keep up with the smaller bikes on the higher sections

[Bibio]

don't know if you have eve been up this way but if you are then its a must:

this is classified as the 'fun' road :-) yes there are scarier roads but not as much fun.

[andrewsmith]

I haven't, don't get much chance to sprint North.
Its normally been going to East Fortune, well I doubt that gonna happen anytime soon.

[Bibio]

one day andy one day m8 :-)

there are some interesting roads round east fortune but they are mainly straight then sharp bend then straight then sharp bend etc.etc. they have caught me out a few times.

[andrewsmith]

The roads are a hoot around the circuit. The one to north Berwick is like something that wouldn't look out of place at the TT

[Bibio]

dont know if you have been on this one:

but you can get some serious 'air' on it :-)

[andrewsmith]

I nearly did when I thought a missed the turning

This road was evil

[Bibio]

yup straight bend straight bend lol.

try them on a kh100 with 6 volt leccys at night. i have been scooting around those roads most of my life :-) i grew up in edinburgh and it was just a short jump to get there and have fun as there were never ever any cops around.

[andrewsmith]

Bad enough with 12v electrics and bright bulbs.
It 30 mins from the Edinburgh ain't it
