Comrie Croft/Glen Turret- Sunday 13th

  By

Hi Folks,

Planning to do a play ride up at Comrie Croft day after the BBQ. Rik Allsop has spent the winter up there extending their trails, and rumour is they are meant to be great fun, so about time to check them out. As it’s the barby the night before planning a later start time of around 11am.

Might consider extending the ride, by starting at the Distillery and riding up to Glen Turret before heading over on some single track into Comrie. TBC.

Anyone fancy it?

Cairngorm Loop Big Weekend 26th-27th July

  By

I’ve put the following event into the calendar:  http://www.gmbc.org.uk/event/cairngorm-loop-weekend-provisional/

As some of you know, impending fatherhood means I have a lot of long rides to get out of my system before my riding is reduced to an hour or two early morning blast, commuting, CX racing and stolen minutes on the turbo (joy).  So far this has mainly consisted of riding around in small circles with number board attached and endlessly long road rides.

So I thought it might be time for something different and something big.  Might be the last chance I get for some time.  So hows about this:

300km over two days, around the Cairngorms.  B&B/bunkhouse at Aviemore or Braemar.  Route based on this event: http://www.cairngormsloop.net/  Here’s a tread on Singletrack with some nice pictures:  http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/a-cairngorm-loop

C’mon, you know you want to.  It will be epic.
