COG Ride 3rd May

Turned into a very eventful evening! Good number of riders 2 first timers Tom and Andrew. Although I don’t think Andrew will be back out for a few weeks as he came a cropper last night landed on his hand breaking small finger and bone in his elbow – hope you are better soon buddy. Weather was a bit wet but didn’t last too long. The ride was good it started with a blast out to Longforgan, up Knapp and over to Burrelton and down Balthayock. Then we rode over to St Madoes for a sprint back to Inchture. Some fast sprints!

Kinross Sportive

Epic ride through fife and sournding area which included some of the hardest and steepest climbs in our area. COG Velo was well represented on the day with both men and female riders from our club. Some fast times were registered. All in all a good training run for Etape Caledonia in Pitlochry in 2 weeks time.

Tour of the Borders

Well done Ali and Ken for flying the flag of Carse of Gowrie Velo (COG). Weather was not very pleasant for you guys with strong wind, rain and I believe some roads were flooded also. Major kudos to you both for completing the ride in these terrible conditions around Peebles.

Find out more information on the Tour O’ the Borders website. Results can be found here.

COG Ride 11th April

Great turn out last night of 8 riders, Chris, Jay, Brian, Russell, Ali, Pete, Steph and Nick. We opted for a blast along to St Madoes and up Glen Carse and Kilspindie so it was a good session.Colder on the higher ground and longer nights so more daylight – bonus! A few competitive sprints for the 30 sign – which was good.
