Dumyat Tues 29th July

If anyone fancies it, I’m meeting some folks at Logie Kirk, 7pm on tuesday. Nice singletrack climb up through the woods, up and down Dumyat, and some cracking descending too. Weather looks good, probably shouldn’t have typed that…

Borders Raid Weekend Away

It’ll appear on the calendar soon but we’re planning a weekend away down in the Borders on Sat 23rd and Sun 24th Aug.  The plan is to book hostel accommodation but space is limited so it’s on a first come first served basis.  We have 3 interested so far and the hostel said they only had 9 spaces so post up here if you want to come.  If you can post up in the next day or 2 that would be good.  If we have more people than spaces in the hostel then I can suggest a few campsites locally.  The plan is:

  • Innerleithen red trail on Saturday, but save some energy for….
  • A big natural ride near Selkirk on Sunday (red mainly, with some black sections)

Of course, if you can’t come for the weekend then just come along for one of the days.  NB: The Sunday ride will depart from Selkirk so allow plenty of time and it may be an early start to pack in all the trails.

Introductory skills and advice night 23/7/15

Hey guys
We are planning another skills and top tips ride for the 23 July. Chris millar will be joining us agin and will be on hand to provide advice on riding, what to have in your pack and will also advice on how to perform trail side fixes to get you home in the event of a mechanical. We ran one of these a few months ago and got some great feedback. I will also be bringing my work stand and a few tools if anyone has any maintenance questions. Chris has worked in bike shops for many years and has great enthusiasm for riding in all disciplines and levels.

There is also going to be hot dogs back at the hall so I’d appreciate if you could post up if your coming so I know how much to provide. There may also be some cake.

If you want to know more feel free to text me on 07748646697

See you on the trails

Comrie Croft/Glen Turret- Sunday 13th

Hi Folks,

Planning to do a play ride up at Comrie Croft day after the BBQ. Rik Allsop has spent the winter up there extending their trails, and rumour is they are meant to be great fun, so about time to check them out. As it’s the barby the night before planning a later start time of around 11am.

Might consider extending the ride, by starting at the Distillery and riding up to Glen Turret before heading over on some single track into Comrie. TBC.

Anyone fancy it?
