Good night for the COG thursday night club ride not to cold. The wind did pick up as we were heading back to Inchture but that was the least of our worries. Chris had a troublesome night which really we should have repaired the puncture straight away – hindsight is a wonderful thing. 3 stops to inflate a tyre is not much fun – sorry guys. Oh and the police closed the Muirhead to Auchterhouse road so we had a diversion through Dronely – Birkhill.

COG club ride with 6 strong slightly hindered by some deer crossing while travelling at speed was a bit scary. Poor Fran had a little fall – but she is fine which good news. The ride started from Inchture up to Coupar Angus then returning via Newtyle and finishing at Inchture Hotel.

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!’

Another different route this week, we sure are mixing it up!
This week numbers were slightly lower due to the holiday season but still we had 6 riders out enjoy the lovely weather, including 1 new member Neil – hope to see you out again. Everybody seemed to enjoy the route which turned out to be slightly longer than usual and covering 650m elevation! Nice sprinting up Glendoick from everyone Nick and Chris just making it to the top first – nice work chaps. Strong effort out of Newtyle guys even with the slight head wind.
