Likewise if for some reason if I couldn't head out on a Sunday then I'd be up for a Saturday ride.

Thanks for the lead Neil, took a while for my feet to defrost..

Can't fit mudguards to my bike which doesn't help with putting a shift in at the front. I'm looking to solve this with a new bike

Yes please Neil.

Nick/gents, Apologies but I'm going to have pull out of tomorrow's ride, think I've torn a muscle in my leg. It didn't feel too bad this morning but has got worse as the day has gone on. Sorry for the late notice, didn't want to miss the ride. Please offer up my place to anyone who might be interest...

I stayed at a fantastic campsite in Lickisto, they have camping pitches, bell tents, yurts and a bothy. Top place and highly recommended!

I'll be going back

Sounds good Nick, count me in. Cheers

Hi Simon/Phil, Just back from my trip up north, thanks again for the route advice. I rode a 'lollipop' route from South Uist (killer headwind on the return), before moving onto Harris which was spectacular. The road from Rodel to Tarbert (including the Golden Road) was breathtaking, as was the road ...

Sounds good Nick, I'm in

Count me in Phil. See you at Winwood @ 11.30.

Sounds good Nick, I'm in.

Cheers, Pete

Yes please Nick, sounds good.

Cheers, Pete

Epic weather on the ride out to Albrighton! Kudos to the cafe for letting four soaked riders inside

Thanks for leading Nick, good to explore a new area.

Simon, Phil, Thanks for the replies, much appreciated. I'll be travelling and staying in my camper van so will have the flexibility to explore quite a few areas. Harris sounds great, will ride up the East coast and check out the areas you mentioned. Where is the mountain pass you mentioned in North ...

Hi Phil, I'm planning a trip to the Outer Hebrides and Highlands and noticed that you arranged a Beacon trip to the same sort of areas back in 2015. Just wondered if you had any unmissable road rides that you would recommend? My brief plan is to ride across the Outer Hebrides (with some time for pad...

Sounds good Nick, count me in. Cheers

Hi Neil, what time are we setting off from the BH on Sunday? Cheers

Sounds good Neil, count me in
