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.

COG Ride 19th Sept

Well our longer ride to Dunning was discounted and we opted to do a loop from Inchture to Newtyle and return to Inchture. Weather was fine considering it rained all day, but the roads were very slippy. It did get dark around 8pm so lights are essential from now on.

‘It seems we are going through a nasty patch of incidents lately with another punture!’

COG Ride 15th August

Stop at Little Glenshee

As planned we cycled up to Little Glenshee which ordinarly would have been a very pleasant and scenic cycle however as we arrived at Perth the weather took a turn for the worst and it rained on and off for the remainder of our ride. The climb into little Glenshee itself was enjoyable not to steep and much longer than some expected. We should definately visit again sometime perhaps part of a longer ride and hopefully when the weather is much better i.e. no rain!

Good turn out with 10 riders including a new member Ali who came with us until Perth. Nice meeting you and hope to see you out again with us.

‘Superb navigational skills from Pete 🙂 ‘
