The long awaited Club Social Night!! Friday 22nd March!!

  By ,

Hello peeps,

My apologies for the delay and the lack of recent club social nights.  This was a monthly event that the semi alcoholic and party going club members looked forward too.  It’s also a great chance to get new club members mingling with the regulars.

So, it’s back!!  Normally, we’d host this at month end, when we’ve all got a spare bob or two.  But due to the Skye trip, a majority of us will be away “oop north”.

Venue: Coopers Bar on Great Western Road (499 Gt Western Rd, G12 8HN).  Meeting time of 7pm.

They also offer food, if anyone is peckish.  For the party goers, we can shimmy along to Oran Mor to extend the fun into the early hours.

Please let us know if yer in! Fire it in as a comment.

Cheers

Barry & the Committee

Tuesday Night’s Ride: A Report

  By

Cracking show last night!  About 17 folks riding, split over 2 rides; one faster, one more chilled.  3 new faces joined us too!  Dry trails meant no need for the bike wash and copious amounts of tea and banter (and biscuits!)  enjoyed back in the hall afterwards with both groups mingling for a chat.  Magic.

If you weren’t able to join us last night then maybe next time??

Nice Accomodation in Snowdonia?

  By

Hiya,

Off to North Wales in April, and after trawling online to find somewhere to stay, thought it might be good to ask for some reccomendations instead.

Looking for a bit of luxury rather than bunkhouse, just for a change! So, self-catering, somewhere with in easy reach of Coed Y Brenin and Betws Y Coed.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Cheers,

Sam

2013 Trail Maintenance Sessions

  By

Following the great effort last spring I’ve spoken to the Mugdock Ranger and we’ve arranged 3 dates during Spring to some more much needed trail maintenance.  It’s a great chance to  learn some new skills and put something back into an area that we get a lot of enjoyment out of.  Mountain bikers are one of the few groups to actively volunteer their time in this way and it’s greatly appreciated by the Rangers.

Please take a look at the dates below and post up if you’d like to help out.

  • Saturday 2nd March
  • Saturday 16th March
  • Saturday 13th April

NB: sessions typically run from 10am to 3pm, if you have tools then great, if not then we should be able to supply some

Important: Hall Heating

  By

I’ve just been informed that the hall electric heating was left on all night by either us or the yoga folks last Wednesday (13th).

It may have been left on by the yoga-ers and we’ve just not turned it off given we’re not the routine of switching it off.   Either way, on leaving the hall please ensure the electric heating is turned off.

Else the hall might burn down and/or we’re contributing to anthropogenic global warming.  Either way, we’re royally  screwed.

Passportes du Soleil 2013

  By ,

Today after much stress, keyboard tapping, website crashing, and general French faffing I managed to secure tickets for this years Passportes. However during the whole shenanigans I now have 5 tickets and only need 2. The spare tickets are for the Saturday race, 2 leaving from Morzine and the other leaving from Avoriaz (dont ask).

So before I head back to the organisers and ask for a refund on these 3 tickets I thought I’d put it out there and see if anyone wants them first. Cost is €79, this includes a top.

I’m posting this on other sites so its first come first served.

Cheers
