Seriously considering this one.. Need to do a century at some point soon, and it'lll be a nice wee training run for the loch ness and caledonia etapes

It looks to be a great route and if the weather is good then a fantastic day out

Have you not done a century yet?

Not yet.. 81 is my biggest run so far.. Reckon 10 hours is a pretty achievable time for this, depending on the lunch stops.

10 hours, you'll do it a lot faster than that. The Lord of the Lochs that I did in September was 111 miles and I did it in under 7 hours

[PsYcHe]

Not too bad then... would rather estimate a bit high and finish quicker though Did 81 in under 5, so 7 is realistic.

[47p2]

I'm going to aim for 8 hours

Well.. if anyone spots some marbles in the Greater Glasgow area, they may belong to me and my mate who have signed up for the 200km ride

See you at the start line John.

Well done Richard, here's hoping the weather is dry. Will see you on the day

I was visiting my daughter in Roybridge at the weekend and took the single speed with me, Saturday the wind was a killer, I was pedalling along at 18-20mph and the wind would swing round and it was like hitting a wall with speed down to 3mph so I cut the ride short and struggled all the way back to base



Sunday was a better day and much more enjoyable

[PsYcHe]

Was great weather for it at the weekend... managed a quick ride on Saturday, and the plan of a longer ride on Sunday was cut short when the derailleur cage bent after a few miles, managed to limp home and order a replacement.
