Baltic Bawbags - Sunday 22nd February

Its a shame Velo that you cant make it, it would be good to catch up.
Can you not get a lift?
We have had varied weather over the years but they have all been good rides.
I think the only times it wasn't sloppy in places were when it was completely frozen :) The worst was the time we went round the back and down to the tarmac road and then back into the lower end of the forest following Gaz. It was the forest track that was all pine needles and mud and was waterlogged in what was like pig farm run off, covered in it and it stunk. I think it stained most things it touched as well. :)
We've never had a bad one though.
Who's coming?

Re:

Just realized I don't think I've been on a Macretro ride since Glen Doll/ Glen Clova last year :oops:

Velo, maybe we could form the "Macretro Members Non-Members Members Club", with optional "Non-Membership Card" :LOL:

I was in Dunkeld last Sunday, not biking though, but did walk to the nearby Hermitage . Where's this Pub you speak of? :p

Bike wise I'll be going as retro as I get, rigid forks, 3 chainring, and cable operated brakes :shock: just need to take it for a shakedown ride later this week to make sure it's all good for Sunday.

Re:

I'm still a maybe I'm afraid. Stuck in the limbo of wanting to see how shoulder is but also don't want to set myself back. Road riding is fine but untested off-road.
 
you managed the fat run a month back - Loch Ordie routes aren't demanding, especially at my pace, and you could just take it easy downhill.
 
I'll be there!

I'm with TK on this one, take the bike you're most confident on and come on out and play - it's not the most technical of riding, and it's not like we're hooring aboot at any kind of speed. Can always walk (or completely skip) the final clifftop run at the end, which would be the only part of the ride I'd be worried about (if it were me).
 
Come on guys, drag your sorry ar**e out and have a ride :)
Where are all the other macretro's?
