GGCC 'Coffee and Cakes' @ Dales Club Ride details for Sunday 7th April - North - 'To the Crow' - 40 miles

This Sunday we plan to head north towards The Crow Road. We will head out via Stepps, to Kilsyth, on towards 'The Crow' then Strathblane, Milngavie and then on to 'the clubhouse' at Dales Cycles for Coffee and Cakes! 

Please meet under the McLennan Arch on the green for a 8:30am sharp start. We will be doing this ride 'in a oner' with various stops to re-group as we are having our coffee and cakes at Dales. 

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible in THE BRAND NEW KIT!!

We will go through some basic safety, group riding etiquette and group riding technique, first aid and basic bike maintenance before we set off so that everyone stays safe and knows exactly what’s happening on the ride.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THE ROUTE PRIOR TO SUNDAYS RIDE.

Weather is to be a bit cloudy and about 3 degrees but a low chance of rain with a very light breeze.

We will split into STEADY, CHALLENGE and RACE PACE and will be looking for Ride Leaders to take responsibility for each group.

Everyone will take the same route so if you choose the wrong group or get dropped from Challenge, there will always be a group coming up that you can join.

An idea of the pace each group should ride @ are -

Steady IS steady at about 14 -16mph
Challenge should stretch you at around 18mph - 20mph
Race Pace is 20+mph

Pick you group carefully and remember that steady is the only group that holds back and does not drop anyone. 

**WE MAY SPLIT INTO 2 OR 3 STEADY GROUPS AND 2 CHALLENGE GROUPS DEPENDING ON NUMBERS**

**Please remember tubes, pump, levers, multitool and also please ensure your bike is in good working order, oiled, lubed, maintained and clean**

See you all Sunday.
