You will all have had the chance to try on the kit so should know your sizes. I will be at the club post ride tonight (Tues) and also intend to ride tomorrow (Wed). I will have the kit with me for anyone who hasn’t tried the kit yet or who wants to double check sizes.

You will no doubt notice the Team Store closing date of 10th of May. I have previously discussed this with Pactimo who have noted that they can extend the opening period to 10 days. I believe the 5 day period is their default and shown at this time because the store has just opened. I believe that this will be altered by Pactimo shortly.

Aberfoyle/Finglas – Sunday – 19th April

All, Alison & myself will be riding from Aberfoyle town centre – main car park at the tourist information centre. Leaving 10.30am prompt. I will be riding out from the house (on mtb) and will be at the bridge at the Kirki Puffer (Kirkintilloch) at 8.00am – riding out via Crow/Killearn/Gartmore, if anyone wants to join me. Finglas/Aberfoyle will be at the pace of the slowest rider and faster riders can do some hill repeats sections – never getting too far in front. Planning to ride Finglass anti-clockwise. Bring food/warm clothes as the route is exposed and bail-out options are minimum. Limited options for café stops too – but might be able to get a bowl of chips at the Byre on the way back. Please let us know via reply if u want to join us. Looking forward to it.

Kinlochleven 18-19 Apr

Hi all,

I’m planing on doing two day bike trip (loops mainly around Kinloleven) as weather forecast looks great (especially Saturday!). In terms of trails I have nothing particular in mind so I’ll be travelling with my GPS with OS maps so whatever is single/double track marked on map may be my route :). The idea is to just ride starting from early morning Saturday till dusk (lights may be required), stay in a tent here: http://www.macdonaldhotel.co.uk/camping/ or here: http://www.campsiteinscotland.com/glencoecampsitemap.php drink some beer and then do the same on Sunday.
