COG Ride 6th March

Short ride last night because the weather started out rather wet and it was Pedro’s birthday (pub was beconing).

Happy birthday Pedro!

Nearly lost an Olly last night who was flying so fast down the tullybaccart decent he flew past the Collace junction luckily Kieran pulled him back – nice work Kieran.

Descending from North Ballo down through Abernyte was a bit scary with the thick fog – no injuries though and everyone made it safely to the pub for Pedro’s Birthday Pints 🙂

COG Ride 27th Feb

Turned out to be a great night with a touch of star gazing – Aurora Borealis. Big numbers and not to cold either which was perfect. Slight deviation from planned route due to a traffic accident at St. Madoes. Also 2 punctures didn’t help the return leg but seeing the Northern Lights did make up for it. 🙂

COG Ride 20th Feb

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 Ride 16th Jan

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.
