Lance - really sorry to hear that (especially as I've only made it to one so far!). Hope it's nothing grim and that you'll still be out and about in a non-organising capacity.

Sorry to hear that mate - the 1.5 bimbles I've made it to so far were great.

to be honest with you all i have been thinking of stopping the runs for ages as i'm starting to find it stressful about the responsibility of minding a group. i know i sounds silly but if anything were to happen to someone on one of my runs i would not forgive myself. i might do a few next year but at the moment i'm stressed out enough without having the safty of others to contend with.

if someone wants to step up to the mark and take over then by all means do so, just because i'm not organising the bimbles it shouldent stop the rest of you getting together.

Dear ecossers,

i have pretty much ironed out my problems. so starting from this Sunday 16/06/2013 the bimbles shall resume.

if you want to come along then meet place is at South Queensferry Mcdonalds at 09:30-10:30 unless otherwise stated.

it's not a race or a willy waving contest. it's about a nice day out in the company of others taking breaks around every 30 miles or so or if there happens to be a stunning view/something interesting we will be stopping.

if you have to be back coz mummy said to be home for a certain time then this is probably not for you as some of the runs will be well over 300 miles and 10+ hours. so look at the run for that day and decide if you want to come.

petrol - make sure you have a full tank at the start as i make the petrol stop distances from the start and are usually around 100-150 miles.

money - for petrol and i stop for coffee breaks, lunch and sometimes T depending on distances and time.

recovery - no i'm not fixing your bike so make sure that you have breakdown cover.

antisocial behaviour - its never happened but you never know. if it does you will be told to 0898 dooone.

group riding. you will be riding in a group so please be aware of others around you. if found not to be paying attention then you will be told to 0898 dooone.

i take no responsibility for your actions. if you crash its your own fault and in no way will i be held responsible for anything in part or in whole.

Lance

I'd have to bring a jerry can to get 150 miles. Should be up for this if the weather's nice, which it looks like it will be

everyone is welcome to do part or whole or even just come along to the start for a gab.

for those that cant make 150 miles on a tank of petrol can you please say when i post the route up.

if you have a Garmin or TomTom spaznav then i suggest you get a program called TYRE http://www.tyretotravel.com/download-tyre/ you only need the free one. once installed you can copy and paste the route into the program and then send it to your spaznav. if you would like to know how to do this then PM me and i'll go threw it with you.

so without further ado here is the route for this Sunday 16/06/2013

http://goo.gl/maps/RAoAx

point 'I' is petrol and lunch. 118 miles

forecast is overcast/sunny with a few scattered showers.
