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. 🙂

Very eventful COG ride last night. Russell front wheel damaged when his battery pack fell on it – hopefully not to bad.
Pedro came a croper in the dark while heading back home. He wiped out at some road works just after Inchture junction! Hit a 3 inch drop in the tarmac and next thing the bike is side ways and he is sliding along the ground at 20mph+. Result is some road rash, holy bibs and a bent rear derailleur hanger. Punctured front tyre and torn bar tape.
Other than all of that it was a good ride in the wet and dark.

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.

A trip up the Glens!
