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!’

Reverse of our usual loop up 2 hills and back from Glencarse through Errol and to finish at Inchture. First hill was Rait and long and punishing climb followed by Kilspindie which is always fun – in a painful way 😉 The wind was never to far away last night, top effort from all and Pete looking good on the hills.

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 🙂 ‘

Great night for a ride it was warm (20 degrees!) with a little breeze perfect. Impressive numbers again with 12 riders out in spritly form, good sprints and hill climbing. We had a guest appearance from Gary who joined us for the ride – nice sprinting mate 😉 We took a different route last night with our guide for the evening Pete – every enjoyed the new route.

Carse of Gowrie Velo
Big turn out last night 14 riders I believe, some opting for a TT in preperation for Dundee Thistle 10 mile TT on 11th June. The rest choosing a normal club ride which was probably just as demanding with 2 big climbs Glendoick and Rait. Weather was perfect with sunshine and slight wind, most enjoyable. Some new faces again well done guys, hope you enjoyed the ride.

Tour de Tay
Good turn out with 9 riders up for the Tour de Tay last night, with 2 new riders along for the ride (Nick & Jamie). Well done guys it certainly was not a slow pace last night hope you are not too sore today! Weather was a cold evening and the wind was at times unpleasant, however we battled through and had an enjoyable ride through Perthshire and Fife.
