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

Velodrome arrangements for this Sunday :

  By

The session starts at 4, so please aim to arrive by 345 latest. Enter reception on ground floor and at desk say you are on the GMBC Corporate session. I will be there by 330 and I will pay for us all, so don’t pay at the desk. Once past desk head left and downstairs to bike reception (there are changing rooms and lockers if you need before going downstairs, but most folk have their kit underneath and leave bags in the infield (centre bit in velodrome) ). Bike reception will have a list of names and shoes sizes/bike sizes etc. Pick up your kit and come up the steps to centre area where you can dump bag and have a practice riding round the concrete infield.

We are slightly oversubscribed at 18, however the coach says this is ok as some of us are accredited. On basis that there are 18 of us, it’s £9 a head, which I would ask you pay me before leaving !

So the confirmed names are : Continue reading

Club Velodrome Taster session, next Sun 10th @4pm – roll call update, and more people please…

  By

The facts and figs first – it’s a 1 hr session, but plan to be there by 345pm. Bikes, helmets and shoes are included in the price of £10.70 per head. If you have a road helmet and Look Keo cleats you can wear your own, although it costs the same 🙂

No previous track experience is required. If you enjoy it you can use this session as your first of 4 levels of accreditation for the Velodrome, but only if you have a Glasgow Club card (which is free) Continue reading

Sunday 3rd March – away ride?

  By

Does anyone fancy an away ride this Sunday?  I don’t mind where we go – maybe weather depending could go to Kirroughtree or Auchendrain (has anyone been there recently and know what it’s like with all the tree planting and felling?).  I can drive and have space in the car for two others.
