Thursday Road Ride anyone??

I’ve not yet managed to get out on my road bike since last year and since we’re having a spell of glorious weather….does anyone fancy a road ride this Thursday evening?

I’d be keen to set off prompt from the club car park at 6.30pm and be back about 8/8.30pm (I don’t fancy being out in the dark).  Pace of the slowest rider.

I’ll also be out tomorrow night.

 

GMBC 25th Anniversary Events

Hmmm, birthday cake!

Scottish Mountain Bike Orienteering

I’ve just added the dates for the SMBO events to our shiny new calendar. There’s one a month until October.

Does anyone fancy giving one of these a shot as part of a team? I’d be looking for a fun day out, rather than troubling the podium. First one I think I could feasible do is Glentress on 15 April.
