😀 Need to catch up soon- I take it you've moved to be with the new ladyfriend?

Ye'll be a man o' the cloth now then, Father Steven?

I'd be up for this! Wasn't there a cross border meet where we did the Innerleithen red route?

Gutted I can't make this, youngest's birthday that day!

No fags in over three years- the rest is undeniable however! Bosch was great fun- but the British Champs on sunday was a different matter, legs were destroyed by that point. Came dead last in class!

Perfect- He's totally capable of riding- He's a local and has built a couple of trails there himself. Just determined to bring his retro! He has said he'll duck out if it gets too technical for the old bike, he's got to head to Pitlochry later on anyway

Looks like I might be able to make this one, and bringing Allan along too. What is the route plan? He's planning on riding full retro, but I'm probably going to bring the Cotic

Cracking day out, with some good wee descents for the overbiked to play on! Good to meet a few new and old faces too, and great to catch up with you Steven- when's the next one?

Sounds perfect, I've been developing a waist mounted food store recently so good to go!

Two questions- how far is it, and are there any watering holes along the way? Might be dragging one or two others along, retro of mentality if not of bike..

Booked with the boss, so should be good for this one!

Put me down as a possible provisionally maybe... Do ebikes count as retro enough?

Gutted- won't be able to make this one- had hoped to catch up with you Velo! It is the legitimate excuse of the eldest childs birthday though- I will be there in spirit. I could have shown you all some little known singletrack too...

Bloody hell, not sure I'd fancy walking a dog up that!

Re: Re: Did someone say my name? Since you incited several purchases by me (not hard to do I admit), I have to return the favour.. Go on, you know you want to!

Yup, can't say it had an easy life though! Would love another one, but they're not easy to find!

Big Eck- found some old school pics of your local recently! Reckon this was taken 1992-3ish, me on the trusty Dave Yates..

Re: Re: Oooh, I'm on the lookout for things like that- An MPH right hand lever in good nick and mono mini caliper size 5 would do the job! And for your project, I have some 2018 Shimano Deore 10speed stuff going spare if that helps your build? Probably shifter, mech and wear matched chain...

Enjoy folks! the Epic route is out, confirms trails only being used saturday... Not sure whether to be excited or terrified by this: https://tweedlove.com/wp-content/upload ... d-Epic.pdf

Ebike is traquair and golfie only, so that’s not going to interfere.. there’s a YouTube preview of the course- looks like fun and I’d be in there like a shot if I could make it Another one to look at is hammertime at gt, new trail starting same place as zorro finishing at bottom of trailfairy...
