Hi. I’ll be up at the club from just after 9pm if you’re still to collect your top. People I still have tops for are: Al Yuille, Andy & Jen Barker, Bill McKee, David Unsworth, Greg Bowie, Jacqui & Simon Simpson, Iain Ferguson, Mark Forrest and Stuart Harrow. (Paivi & Dave: I’ll bring yours to the weekend away in August).
Leaving Crookston around 6.45pm (Barrhead Rd / Crookston Rd) junction about 6.50pm. 25 miles via Barrhead, Gateside, Braes, descend to Howood and return via Paisley. Any takers? there will be at least 3 or 4 on ride so far, pace quick but not fast if you know what I mean! 🙂
Hi, Shirley Young posted up on our Facebook page regarding hers son’s mountain bike that was stolen in the Maryhill area. The only details provided were……..
“Ridgeback Mountainbike, front suspension, grey, 16-17″, as new, dark grey, silver water bottle cage, mud guard, back light”
Folks,
One of my friends is selling his Lapierre Zesty 314 (140mm front and rear travel). He’s a roadie at heart and since buying it in July 2011, he has used it a grand total of 9 times! He’s looking for £1600 for it. Details below if you’re interested.
Cheers,
Pete
Hiya,
I’ve forgotton what my MTB looks like! Would really like to get away somewhere on sunday. Anyone else up for something? Maybe even a trail centre to keep away from the Mud? Not been to Ae for ages… but don’t really mind where.

If the tour has inspired some skinny tyre action feel free to hook up with the Southside roadride, hope to be more regular again, riding from Crookston at 6.45pm, will head along to Hurlet, passing Toby inn about 7, then through paisley. Ride about 30ish miles into renfrewshire, 2 hrs approx.
My MTB’s are either broken or unavailable. I would be posting a MTB ride otherwise – honest.
Anyway, anyone fancy joining me for this: http://www.gmbc.org.uk/event/sweet-road-ride/
By far and away my (local-ish)favorite area to road ride: fantastic scenery, proper hardcore climbs and *gasp* mostly decent roads with few cars.
There’s a few route options to add climbs/make it shorter.
I’ll not be back on the computer for a few days so maybe’s text me on: Zero seven nine, eight one eight one, five zero, eight two.
I’ll be up at the hall with the club clothing from 9:15pm onwards on Tuesday and Wednesday this week.
In a change of plan Chris and I headed up to Blair Atholl today and tackled Carn Laith
off Glen Tilt for 5hrs. A mixture of Hikie Bikie(this one was steep), loose rocky descent, off piste singletrack, open hill top cycling and the obligatory Glen Tilt river crossing.
Here’s a selection of photos from what proved to be a great day out:-http://www.flickr.com/groups/glasgowmbc/pool/with/7617943532
There’s several other nice hilltops in that area to take in. Next, Carn a’ Chlamain. It’s worth a look.
