A few words from Pete.
Glorious day in Ballingry. Cold but wall to wall sunshine kept the spirits and spectators warm. COG riders in almost every race (counting COG Kids), and our fair share of bad luck. the land is pan flat, but they carved out a tough course, and some impressive mud. Lots of hurdles meant there was nowhere to hide if you can’t jump mount (I can’t!), and the crowd enjoyed some unorthodox mounting in “the arena”. The spiral of doom was endless, and I suspect there are still people riding in circles somewhere near the loch.
Bad luck to Kirsty (flat), Paul F (Flat), Pedro suffered a trashed bike – oouch thats gonna hurt your pocket (at least Christmas is coming up…)
Russell rocked to highest placed male at 18th, thought I was just behind, still 2 mins on the track. Paul F still managed 27th even with a pit stop. Kirsty was 10th in the ladies.
Good day out!
Well done to Anna, who achieved a podium spot for sprog velo.
CX-tastic!

It was brutal course with lots of crashes & mechanicals (but not for me!). Very tough course a mixture of hardcore gravel, mud & forest trails.

A chairman’s report and agenda will be sent out beforehand. It would be great to see as many of COGs 43(!) members there as possible. I’m sure some will go on the hotel for refreshments afterwards as well…

Cold and wet Cog ride last night, brave guys last night, Rule #5 was definately in play. And for those who weren’t out one word slackers! Jamie and Nick opted for more rain and pain than others with an extra loop – well done chaps.

Scottish Cyclo-Cross Series started at the weekend with Auchentoshan, Clydebank the first on the calendar and a very technical course. We had 2 riders flying the flag for COG Velo Pete and Ali. They both thourghly enjoyed themselves and would recommend to anyone who likes its dirty 😉
So it was the first Cycl0-Cross event for both riders and for the club – well done guys and of course our good friend Barry who finished 13th in his age group (show off!).
Read full article and results on the British Cycling website.
