3's a crowd


Good run on a sunny day yesterday and not quite the Lone Biker either with two more in the party. We did a loop of Ayrshire on what was a cold but sunny day with little wind. We took in as many back roads as possible past Whitelees and Eaglesham and over to Irvine via the minor roads before completing the loop to Kilmarnock.
It was meant to be a warm-up for my sportive in the Lake District next weekend but alas it has been cancelled because its ‘cold’! Anyway the pod is booked so I will be heading to the Lakes and doing by own route somewhere instead. Maybe the snow will have cleared the Hardknott Pass and I can do the Sportive route.
Anyway here are the pics from yesterday including Struan (young gun) and Tony (old blunderbuss) and a comedy pose from me. It’s not often the Lone Biker has company so you’ve got to make the most of a photo op! Comedy poses aside it was a a good chance to take out the Cube CX bike. It was basically a wrecked machine after the Scottish Champs with not a single bearing escaping a grinding mud bath but it had been lovingly restored to health by mccrackenprocycling.
