Saturdays forecast is not great as such I have kept the ride reasonably local with plenty of bail out options. Please keep an eye of Forums for any updates/ changes or cancellations. Forecast is wet, getting worse later in the day so please be prepared and dress accordingly.

Saturday’s club road ride is out to the Crofters at Rosemarkie

The route is 54 miles , starting and finishing at Fairways. Details of the route can be found below, please download to your bike computer if you have one:

Please pre-select your group (either 1, 2 or 3), based on an average speed over the complete distance, noting that speeds are a rough guide and may indeed be slower or faster depending on conditions. We will endeavour to accommodate your group selection, dependent on rider numbers and availability of ride leaders. For the safety of all riders we operate a no-drop policy on Saturday rides.

Group 1 – 16-18mph / 26kph-29kph
Group 2 – 14-16mph / 22kph-26kph
Group 3 – 13-15mph / 21kph-24kph

If you want to challenge yourself then you can select a faster group than your usual but with the option of dropping down after the coffee stop.

All those wishing to join the ride need to post before 7pm on Friday evening when the ride will be closed.

Please meet at Fairways roundabout, just off the distributor road, at 08:50 for a 09:00 departure. Departure will be sharp.

Riders should ensure their bikes are mechanically sound before attending a club ride and that the following minimum spares / tools are carried.

2x inner tubes
2x Co2 canisters (& dispenser) or appropriate hand pump
adhesive patches
Multi tool
Quick link (appropriate for your chain speed)
Tyre levers
Rear Light

Please also note that we ask people to carry ICE (In Case of Emergency) details with them on our rides. Please carry on ICE card or similar in your seatbag or back pocket, detailing the name and phone number we should contact if you are involved in an accident.

See you Saturday
