Circuit of Arran on Road - Posponed, the North is Calling

Climbing is not the issue on the road its winds coming off the sea. Clockwise often gives you a following wind to push you up the west coast which is more exposed than the east. I did get a Brompton right round the island in the past so its quite doable and there are numerous pubs with good grub on the circuit.
 
good grub :D
Why didnt you say so before.

BTW looking at that chart I thought it was gonna be hard :shock:

Winds not a problem for me or TK :LOL:

.
 
Also a superabundancy of public toilets and swings in every village. Seriously. :D

In a kerfuffle about bikes now - have modern CB Cape Wrath already on Arran, but was gonny swap that for 1988 Marin on next visit (and flog the CBCW), but now we're talking roady stuff which may mean breaking out The Bianchi as well :shock:
 
So seriously guys are we really thinking of Arran road circuit the weekend before our big meet.

Its a yes from me provided I'm no ill ;)
 
I've only ever done it clockwise. That's probably why i was chewing my bars on the climb with the wind buffeting me :LOL: Time to get my winter road bike ready with my compact chainset :cool: What better way to get aquainted with the Macretro massive!!! :LOL:
