Well done to both Ben and Russell for putting themselves through the tough Muckmedden Enduro. It looked like great fun from the photographs and I’m sure there will one or two stories from this great event in the Fiar City, Perth.
Ben had an altrication with a tree but both Ben and bike are fine – which is good 😉
And for the most important cyclists the Kids!
It was great to see so many kids whizzing around the kids course with 8 COG sprogs taking part. There was much to celebrate with Stu winning 4-7 year olds category and Alex coming in a close 3rd – Superb!
It turned out to be a fantastic day for a ride, pictures look great. Plenty of riders (9 in total) seizing the opportunity to catch one of the last few days of nice weather to cycle through fife – can’t beat it!
The route: Taybridge > Newport > Wormit > Balmerino > Springfield > Anstruther > Crail > Scotlands Secret Bunker > Stravithie > St Andrews > Strathkinness > Dairsie > Craigsanquhar > Logie > St. Fort > Wormit > Newport-on-tay > Taybridge
Cold and wet Cog ride last night, brave guys last night, Rule #5 was definately in play. And for those who weren’t out one word slackers! Jamie and Nick opted for more rain and pain than others with an extra loop – well done chaps.
Inchture > Abernyte > Collace > Lang Glen >Inchture
Road and Off-road action last night! With some riders trying out their CX skills through Rossie and beyond. While the mountain goats Chris and Steven go for a spin up Carse of Gowrie Death Climb 🙂
Ironman 70.3 Lanzarote 2013 sounds scary just reading about the course never mind actually completing it! We have one crazy man who did just that and finished in an impressive 17th place in his age group. A huge well done to you Francesco! You have earned youself an ice-cream!
Scottish Cyclo-Cross Series started at the weekend with Auchentoshan, Clydebank the first on the calendar and a very technical course. We had 2 riders flying the flag for COG Velo Pete and Ali. They both thourghly enjoyed themselves and would recommend to anyone who likes its dirty 😉
So it was the first Cycl0-Cross event for both riders and for the club – well done guys and of course our good friend Barry who finished 13th in his age group (show off!).
