GGCC Club Run, Sunday 14th September 2014, North Clockwise - 48 Miles

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

We plan to head north this weekend towards Torrance, then Milngavie, Strathblane, The Crow Road and then onto Kilsyth to The Boathouse for coffee. We will then head back into town via Stepps. 
Please bring your £2 for coffee which will be collected at the coffee stop just before you get your drink.

We will head out of town in groups of 10 before splitting into our paced groups at the usual roundabout just passed the Asda. 

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.

The group leaders will be identified prior to setting off in order that each paced group runs as smoothly as possible and everyone knows who the group leader in that specific group actually is. 

For those of you who are first aid trained and have been issued first aid pack, can you please bring these along on Sunday (and each run you attend)

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