Re:
I think it's going to be a "No" from me, been back into hospital this morning with more weird sh*t going on with my leg :roll:
I haven't been on a bike at all recently so I think a 50+ mile ride in two weeks time is out of the question at the moment.
Shame as it looks like a nice route, I'll be thinking of you guys though

Re:
Alas for me its now a No. My Old Banger of a car went BANG !!!!
A list of minor faults that needed fixed has been added to by the starter motor blowing up. As an impoverished student I no longer have the spare funding capacity to fix it so its off to the scrappy
It was good while it lasted, gave 10 months valuable driving experience and has been to the North of Scotland, the South of England and many places in between.
I cannot really afford the time to come to the event if I cannot drive myself there and back so its a definite no way Hose' for me.
Enjoy yourselves guys

No for me as well.
Barely been riding all summer and despite getting a few rides in this week, there's no way I'd be able to do 60 miles. Did 31 this morning and not much left in legs by the time I got home. Even at a slower pace I've not done any big rides since changing insulins back in June, and not confident I'd be able to keep sugars at a decent level over the course of 5-6 hours.

I've barely been out this summer
Panda 4 still showing interest - 16yo ardent footballer who hasn't been on a bike much in recent years - should be fit enough though. Poor weather may put him off, but we'll see. Pandas 1, 2 and 3 plus the former(?) Mrs Panda are otherwise occupied.

If it's the same route as last time we had that short cut after lunch which can significantly lessen the mileage. We're not out to kill anyone but 60 miles at a relaxed pace is certainly do able, we are going out for a ride on old bikes, not qualifying for a national time trial.
I don't mind the mileage but if shortening it a bit means more friends there than I am all for it.

Re:
Precisely.
Is 10am a suitable meeting/start time for folks?
McLaren Hall car park in Killin - its at eastern end of village. Same place as last time.
Flying Scot currently undergoing some remedial paintwork and I'm off to rummage around for some suitable gearing
