COG Ride 18th April

Great turn out for thursday’s club ride, one of our biggest so far 11 bodies. The route took us up to Murthly – Meiklour then a Figure of 8 and back to Inchture Hotel. A few KOM’s on the way nice one Brian and the mandatory sprint to the 30mph signs which I think Ben was our points winner for the evening.

Tour of the Borders

Well done Ali and Ken for flying the flag of Carse of Gowrie Velo (COG). Weather was not very pleasant for you guys with strong wind, rain and I believe some roads were flooded also. Major kudos to you both for completing the ride in these terrible conditions around Peebles.

COG Ride 11th April

Great turn out last night of 8 riders, Chris, Jay, Brian, Russell, Ali, Pete, Steph and Nick. We opted for a blast along to St Madoes and up Glen Carse and Kilspindie so it was a good session.Colder on the higher ground and longer nights so more daylight – bonus! A few competitive sprints for the 30 sign – which was good.
