COG Ride 3rd July

Great ride last night with a bit of climbing up Kilspindie and fast flat work through the lang glen. And most importantly everyone enjoyed the ride well apart from the point when Nico got stung by a bee 🙁

Bring on the Tour de France (Sat 5th July 2014)!

COG Ride 19th June

As it was our 3rd Thursday of the month we have a longer rider. We cycled over towards Dunkeld but took the Murthly turn before it to complete a figure of eight back to Inchture. Going through Meikleour and Murthly back to Balbeggie then Inchture.

Big numbers out again which is great to see. Weather was perfect although did get a bit colder later in the ride. Fast going to, with a major hurt on between Lynton – Kinclaven from the big guns Jamie, Pedro, Brian and Co.
