Road Ride On Sunday to Aberfoyle?

  By

A winter of not riding means I’m toiling for fitness, so I need to get my finger out.  I’ll be doing this: http://www.gmbc.org.uk/event/sunday-road-ride/ on Sunday should anyone want to join me.  Hopefully the weather will be OK – it looks like an improvement towards the end of the week.  It can’t possibly be as bad as yesterday (Sunday)…

Other routes are available, so if you have a better idea I’m open to that.

Velodrome taster session ?

  By

so there is  a bit of chat on the Facebook page about a Club taster session, and a fair number of members have been through the accreditation sessions and ‘have the ticket’.  There are Sunday slots for group bookings, so thinking we could get a slot maybe in March ? – this would probably need 15 people to commit.

I am happy to arrange and will speak to the Velo folk this week about what’s on offer/prices etc.  The drop in sessions and accreditations are around £10 for an hour, which includes bike, helmet (road style only allowed) and shoes (Look Keo), so I’d reckon we would be looking at around a tenner a head.

Post up if interested, and I’ll update on possible dates that suit the majority and are available.

Update from Dawn:

Hi all,

Just wanted to confirm meeting times for the 19th January.

You will need to be at Bullands Coffee Shop no later than 10:20am on  Saturday morning. The taxi will be arriving at 1030am to pick up the luggage. He is expecting to pick up approximately 20 odd bags so I’ve put in a request for an Estate car. If you’re no there for 1030am then you’ll be pedaling yer own luggage to Balmaha and over Conic Hill, so best no be late 🙂  The luggage will be taken into the Oak Tree and they will stow it in a safe place for collection when we arrive nice n muddy later on.
