Monday 5th August – Development Ride
Quote from SteveB on 4 August 2024, 11:15ICC Monday Development Ride – 5th August
Mondays’s ride starts from the Battlefield and follows a clockwise loop through Balloch, Ardesier, Fort George, and Croy. The distance is 37km / 23 miles, but can easily be shortened to 27km / 17 miles by cutting out the extra loop out to Fort George.
The meeting point is the Battlefield car park (the section closest to the B9006). Other ways to find this location are: ///outermost.protect.sushi in what3words, or by looking for the start point of the ride in the Strava route included below.
Please be at the meeting point by 18:20 at the latest for an 18:30 start.
The route can be viewed and downloaded for your bike computer here:

The forecast for this evening is now looking warm and dry, so the ride is definitely going ahead. If anyone has been holding off posting whilst they see what the weather is doing then I’m happy for them to post late.
Please ensure that your bike is in a roadworthy condition and that you are carrying a spare inner tube, tyre levers and a method of inflation as a minimum.
Finally, please also note that we ask that everyone carries ICE (In Case of Emergency) details with them on our rides. An ICE card, or similar, should be carried in your seatbag (or back pocket if you ride without one) detailing the name and phone number that should be contacted if you are involved in an accident. The ICC Emergency Contact Details Card is available to be downloaded and printed out for this purpose. Please ask for details.
