GGCC 'old skool' Road Bike Time Trial - 27th Oct 2019

Hosted by your ‘Cycling Weekly UK Club of the Year 2019 nominated club!

Please meet under the McLennan Arch on the green for 8:30am sharp start.

Bit of a unique one this week, as we will be riding out of the green and heading up to the Fairweather Hall for sign on for the ‘old skool’ road bike time trial hosted by your Cycling Weekly UK Club of the Year nominated club!

Those competing will then make their way to the start line at their allocated time (located at A77 golf club entrance) and compete in the standard GGCC 10 mile TT route. After the event there will be prize giving, refreshments, snacks and banter for you and your guests.

For those that want a club ride after the event then that can be arranged over coffee and chat at The Fairwether hall depending on numbers and weather.  

For those leaving from the Arch on Sunday morning, we will go through some basic safety, first aid and basic bike maintenance before we set off so that everyone stays safe and knows exactly what’s happening on the ride up the sign on.

For those coming straight up to the hall, sign on opens at 9am sharp

*PLEASE CAN EVERYONE BE SIOGNED ON AND READY FOR THE RACE BRIEFING FOR 9.45am**

Can all marshalls be ready for their briefing at 9.30am

Hopefully we will be busy with GGCC’ers and guests so to make sign on quick please make sure you fill in the following –

Pay your £5 entry fee

We will need names and DOB for both riders – Wee Dobboo will be looking after sign on so sign your name and then give me the detail for the electronic time sheet.

Categories for simplicity on the day are – Male / Female / Mixed and Guest

We will award top 3 in each category for the craic and remember this is a season ending fun event! I will look at results and pull championship points from it later in the day and tell you all how Ive worked it all out so you all know…….points at this stage really do matter!!

The weather looks ace with sunshine, les than 5% of rain and a breeze of only 12mph from the NW

So……..no TT bikes, no skin suits, no pointy hats, no wheels above 50mm, nothing aero……just you…..a big smile….and lets have some fun!

Looking forward to seeing you all.
