The hill rep session tomorrow night (the 9th) will start at 8:15pm outside the Lovat Hotel, not 7:30pm as last week. Despite Ruffy's comments he did enjoying himself....well thats what it sounded like!
Having completed the Inverness Half Marathon today my legs are shot, so I'll bring up the rear tomorrow night.
Cheers,
Alec.

Inspired by Chris Hoys thighs  , amongst other things, I signed up for this event too and am enjoying riding my shiney new bike. I can't swim and don't run, but can I come along on your training sessions anyway?!!!! I'll try and come to the hill reps sessions on Mondays and can make both the route recce sessions. Thanks for organising those Alec. If anyone is free for a longer run during the week please give me a shout. Cheers Annette |

Annette.
As they say "come on in the water is lovely". Doesn't matter if you can't swim or run, just come along for the cycle. In time you might catch the tri bug.
Cheers,
Alec.

I'd really appreciate a lift for body and bike on the 21st, more than happy to contribute for fuel.
Where and when for a rendezvous?
Feeling inspired after a nice ride today (just as well after a not so nice ride yesterday).

So far we have Alec, Nick, Jim, Gary, Stan and Jerry. Anybody else? I'll leave it open until Wednesday night, then we'll set a time and location to meet. I'd prefer an early start, say leaving Perth at 08:00 at the latest.
Hill reps tomorrow (Monday) night at 8:15pm outside the Lovat Hotel on the Glasgow Road.
Cheers,
Alec.

Hello there
I too would like to do this route on Saturday and I'm looking for a lift please........Grahame is going to come along a bit later with the kids, so I will have a lift home.
I am hoping that Annette will join too - we will be slower no doubt!!!
