    Absolutely, you going to the game on Sunday?

    Failing that I'm working in Edinburgh this and next week if that helps you?.... I could drop it off somewhere that suits us.

    Interesting this should appear again today, was at a talk yesterday by James McCallum who mentioned that he had cycled the NC500 in under 29 hours without any sleep, I壇 only heard of people driving it in the past, cycling it is mad especially all in one go like James!

    He's an absolute beast on a bicycle for sure, I just wonder if Mark Beaumont will bounce back..🤔

    Of all the challenges I've done I'd have to say this was one of, if not the toughest to date. Weather conditions put a whole different spin on it, see what I did there. 😉 The surface water with passing vehicles, especially the motorbikes, throwing buckets over us as we fought with the rain for the first 3 day's was tough... Still, it's done and dusted as I look forward to receiving my free bus pass come December.😂 Glory Glory 💚💚

    Hey LH! ..... a huge thank you for dropping the framed print off at my house, that saved me carting it on the bus after a game (and a few beers)

    It's now on the wall taking pride of place at the top of the stairs .... looking Awesome!

    Was speaking with Gary Hand of Expresso Cycling Coaching and his company do a ride on the NC500 and those taking part take 3 days to complete it. Avg just over 15mph with plenty of stops. Just shy of 170 miles a day.

    To do that in 29 hours is an amazing feat! I知 doing a bit of cycling in the Alps for my Big Birthday next year with the Alpe D辿uez, Col Du Galibier high on our list of rides.

    Super effort though

    Do they do it clockwise or anti?
    My wee almost 60-year-old legs couldn't do 170 miles a day, a tall order even for the fittest cyclist. The recovery would be paramount for day 2&3.


    Excellent sounds the business. I'd go back to France, Spain tomorrow, best cycling I've ever done...

    That I am not sure. Hoping to maybe sign up and do that next year with a few of us. Gary is the cousin of one of my best mates so hopefully a space will be available.

    We did the Beaumont route in 4 days earlier this year, that was at the comfortable end of uncomfortable. Not sure I've got a three day effort in me, though would depend on the support provided by the tour group, we were unsupported.

    Fully supported Ian. Still a hard one to do. I also think the weather was fair so that makes it a lot better!

    My cycling chum did that one. Said it was wild. I知 in the process of wind down this year unfortunately. Couple of weeks holiday before a light 4 weeks (maybe) followed by knee surgery end of November then a 6 week recovery/recuperation period (ish) before I知 back on it from the 1st of Jan.

    Will also have my eyes on a new set of wheels for the spring to help me along before my trip to the alps!
