There will be 4 Albertos riding the 47 mile event,
Meeting point - 8am - Glasgow Green at the Mclennan Arch, across from Billy Bilslands shop.

Easy pace, with plenty of feed station stops.

Anyone else riding the 47 or 110 miles, speak up and group up.

Alex B, Allan B, George S & James S rode out at 8:15, in a large group for the steady 47 miles to Edinburgh.

A few wobbly riders to negotiate going through Glasgow,
but plenty of grub available at the stops, and lots of wheels to follow.
Mainly light tailwind, and dry all the way.

Well done to all that finished.
