Well done to all who helped and took part in todays Abernyte Hill Climb
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)!

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.
Loop of the Carse last night with a good show of riders and the weather was great with only a little wind. A bit of an APR thrown in to the ride which is always good fun.

Big turn out again 19 riders – must be the weather! Indeed the weather was perfect with only a slight wind. Again we put in a checky APR to keep people on their toes.

Good luck to all COG Velo who are taking part in the Three Pistes Sportive on 1st June 2014.
Looks like a tough course:
102 miles and 2690 metres of climbing!
The route takes you past 3 ski centres, over the UK’s 2 highest roads, through some of the UK’s most remote countryside, ascending eight categorised climbs (4 of which have gradients of 20%) – and finishes by climbing the UK’s 4th highest road to Cairngorm Ski Centre.
The event has sold out but you can find out more information from their website.
