Well done COG 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.
