That's disappointing but hey-ho. I don't know what dates I'm home in June.
It says its to be light rain so some might not come and with only 6/17 who put their name down showing I thought it was best to postpone it.

That's a shame.

As it turns out apart from being up North tomorrow, my daughter is fighting on Sunday morning in a karate competition so i'd have pulled out anyway.

9th June sounds a goer for me!

Shall we start a list?

I'm away offshore next week, but I'll be back on the 6th June, so the 9th is still a good option for me. Who knows, maybe the Duke's Pass will be in a better state by then.

According to the Met Office website, the weather for the Crieff area on Sunday shows light rain around 10:00 am, then simply overcast for the rest of the day. No wind to speak of either, and the temperature above 12 degrees, so it's not really that bad.

Personally, I'd still be up for it, but it's moanthebairns gig, and naturally he should call the shots, so I'll defer to his decision..

I'm still up for it. Two days ago the forecast for today was overcast and light rain for my region, and this is what we got instead:



So, even if only a few of us turn up, it might be fine.

I don't really like large group rides anyway................

Forecast on the phone says heavy rain till 4 light rain till 10 then fine for the rest of the day.
