Hi – Paivi & Dave are visiting so a few of us are heading out for a local ride this Friday and will be meeting up with Dawn after she’s done some crazy offroad run somewhere 😉 . It looks like there’s Barry, Thomas, Eilidh and myself.
11am at the club hall if you’re interested. Paivi, Dave and myself will be riding up from Glasgow trying to follow the urban route in reverse. Contact me if you’d like to join us for the ride up, otherwise we’ll see you at the club hall.
Hi folks,
I hope you’re all looking forward to the Balmaha weekend trip. A big thank you to Dawn for organising it (again!) and to Lorna for transferring the bags (again!). I’m sure it’ll be another great weekend and it’s great to see a lot of new faces coming along too. As we’ve got a group of 20+ riders and we’re using a public path I thought I’d post up a few wee reminders to keep the ride running smoothly, I’m sure most of it is pretty obvious: Continue reading
We’ve had 1 person pull out of the hostel for the Easter trip to Grantown so there’s a space going if you fancy it. It’s first come, first served so fill in your name on this form if you’re interested:
Even if you miss this opportunity but are still interested and would be happy to pay up if a space became available then fill your name in to be on the waiting list in case we get any other folks pulling out.
To everyone else who has signed up a wee reminder that the accommodation money £74 is needed by Fri 27th Feb – just over a month away. After that point the accommodation money is non-refundable unless you can find someone to take your place.
Hi – my stuff is packed and I’ll be up at the hall for a 7pm ride in the snow/slush – anyone else fancy joining me??

Happy New Year all! I’m heading up to Comrie Croft tomorrow, is anyone else interested? Here’s the details:

I can offer a lift to 1 person, leaving from the westend. Text me or post up if you’re either interested in the lift up or plan on coming along to Comrie.
Hi. We’ve used club funds to pay the deposit for exclusive use of the Ardenbeg Bunkhouse in Grantown-on-Spey (approx 15miles north east of Aviemore). The trip will be for 4 nights, arriving Thu 2nd April, departing Mon 6th April. Bunkhouse accommodation will cost £74per person for the weekend (assuming we get 19+ people signing up).
Grantown is a great base for mountain biking with it being a short distance from both the Glenlivet trail centre and all the classic trails near Aviemore & Rothiemurchus, not to mention a skills loop in Grantown itself. With all the riding nearby there should be options to suit everyone. As is usual with club weekend trips we’ll be sharing the catering duties and there will be plenty of great banter (although, no hot tub this time!).
All the details for signing up & making your payment can be found on the link below:
If you have any problems accessing the form then let me know: (grahamDOTandertonATgmbcDOTorgDOTuk)
Yip. That’s right. Easter. Next year. We’re planning it and we’ve not even finished with the Christmas holidays yet! The sign up for the Easter trip will be going live on 29th Dec at 7pm so here’s a chance for you to do some thinking in advance….
So, check your calendars, organise your shifts, plan your holidays and keep your eyes peeled here for the online sign up form.
SIGN UPS WILL ONLY BE TAKEN OFFICIALLY VIA THE ONLINE FORM – NOT VIA POSTS, EMAILS, TEXT MESSAGES OR DRUNKEN COMMITMENTS IN THE PUB 😉
Hi. As per the title really – it’s a local ride followed by a sociable post-ride beer/non-alcoholic beverage in a local pub (location TBC, probably the Burnbrae).
10:30 departure from the club hall, probably riding for 3-4 hours – maybe with a short cafe stop before returning to town to find a warm pub. I’m trying to pack in as many of the best local trails as possible.
Take front & rear lights in case it’s dark when leaving the pub. NB: it won’t be a long session in the pub, just that the days are short!
Hi. If you want to be a part of a night that will go down in club history as a real stoater * then you have 3 more days to get your name down and pay the bargain sum of £15.
What does your £15 get you? A drink on arrival, a superb spread of delicious Siempre buffet food, some festive cheer, proper belly laughs, a warm feeling of belonging to the best bike club in Glasgow and some happy memories of a great night out with friends, old & new. Told you it was a bargain!
Who’s going? So far we have:
Phil, Stuart, Davie H, Al D, John & Helen, Sam & John, Gillian, Gav, Alison & Gerry, Angus Mac, Alden, Katie O, Eilidh, Dawn, Neil, Myriam, myself and TBC’s from Tom “cup o’ tea?” Wylie and Keiran & Iain.
How do I sign up? Simple. Fill this form in and make a BACS transfer as detailed in the form. If you have any problems signing up then contact me via the email in the original post:
