GGCC Club Run - Wednesday 14th August – Strathaven Route with Greenlees Road climb to start.
We will head through Cambuslang, up Greenlees Road to East Kilbride and then onto Strathaven before returning along Mutton Hall Road and then down Sydes Brae and back into Cambuslang.
We would advise that you bring lights for your bike as its starting to get dark at the end of run.
Meet at 6.45pm for a 7pm sharp start at the McDonalds at the end of London Road near the junction of the M74.
We will go through some basic safety tips and group riding etiquette before we set off so that everyone stays safe and knows exactly what happens on the ride.
Can we have a show of hands from the nominated ride leaders to look after groups tomorrow please?
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THE ROUTE PRIOR TO WEDNESDAYS RIDE.
