Myself, Chris & Nick (who’s just joined the club) headed up just North of Perth today for a ride round Glen Garr and Little Glen Shee. It turned out to be a bit of a winter classic, with the weather far exceeding the forecast and a very varied mix of riding around the 41km loop . It’s only just over an hour from Glasgow, which is great considering the quality of the riding.

It would be great to get a few folk out, looks like a great route in a stunning area. Not too far from Glasgow either.

Bothy Ride in April
I’ve put some details in the calender for a bothy ride in April. I know it’s a while away but I’d like to see who’d be interested. I’ve done this route before and it was a good ride, would like to do it again in the spring. It would be a mini adventure if nothing else.

Too cheap to pay for your own fireworks? Fireworks Night Ride 5th Nov.
Hi,
The weather looks pretty good tomorrow night so I’m going to take a ride up to Mugdock to see the fireworks going off across the city. The Glasgow Green display is going off at 7:30 so planning on meeting at the usual car park at 6:45 and riding up to a good view point. I’m going to take some mulled wine and stollen for mid ride refreshments.

Anyone riding tonight at 7:45?
Hi,
Is anyone heading out tonight (Wednesday)? The weather will probably be some kind of wet and the trails muddy but it’ll beat sitting at home.

Carron Valley Night Ride – Tue 25th Sep?
Hi,
Anyone up for a night ride at Carron Valley next Tuesday? I know Carron Valley divides opinion but it’ll make a nice change from chewing up the trails at Mugdock. I’d suggest meet at 7.30pm at the main car park. If there’s enough interest I’ll stick it in the Calender.
