Bike Run- 9.11.11


Today's effort was just over 27 miles, bring the total since Mon to 61 miles and in under a week 84 miles.

Very cloud and overcast, weather forecast was for rain, but I ventured out otherwise.

Took the hill top route around Mauchline- Back into top end of village and back road to Tarbolton. Across B719 and down past Trains Nursery and onto Stair and past the Stair Inn. (cracking eatery).

This was where I took a different route- Moved onto Trabboch and joined the A70 for around 5 miles till I reached Ochiltree. I then could have decided to go back to wards home but decided to continue along back road to Auchinleck and stopped at the Barony A Frame monument for a breather.

I took a short audioboo of a story tale that is on 1 of the exhibits. Very interesting. lol

Then onto Sorn, past Sorn Castle and back via Balochmyle and back into my home village of Mauchline. - not ideal weather- well I suppose it is November !


Todays route:

Its not an uncommon fact that the weather recently has been very poor, a mixture of rain, hail, snow, gale force winds and everything else being chucked at my part of the world. .. so it was a very pleasant change to wake to nice sunny weather - and I thought Im grabbing my bike and going a run for what seems like the first time in weeks. - on a Day Off. Done the usual route home-Kilmarnock, join the cycle path to Irvine, then down to Ayr via Troon. Then back up the B743 to Mauchline. 44 Miles and a very good cycle.  Planning more on Sat, Hopefully a 60 Miler. - Weather looks ok..
