Me and Charlie headed over for the rothesay weekend of cycling
We had entered last year but a large patch of fresh gravel ,caused a fall just before the event, so we cancelled
We entered this year
Hill climb,
The serpentine,
It was cold,windy,but dry
A good crowd cheeed the riders, up the 13 corners,and Charlie did a great time,forgot the actual time
I rode as well,but about 35 secs down on my last efforts, let’s just leave it there
My target time for me and Charlie in the 2 up was an hour
It’s a undulating, rough surfaced route,with quiet roads and amazing scenery if you have time to look
Christina mckenzie, lejog holder and her partner caught us within 4 miles
But we stuck to our ride,and caught a few pairs ourselves, and ignored the riders overtaking us
The last 4 miles were tough against the wind ,and we came in at 59.22
Great ride for Charlie, and we have agreed to partner again next year ,for sub 58 challenge
There was a 10 mile tt in the morning, and a road race, which we never rode
Great weekend ,and sounds like more interest for fullarton pairs for next year
Thanks to Mark Abrahart for coming over to cheer us on,and was great to see Steve Donaldson
