Hi All,

Mike has organised Saturday’s Club ride to the Crofters Cafe in Rosemarkie. The route is approximately 89km (55 miles) and the link is below, please download the route to your bike computer, if you have one:

As the Club forum is currently being tested on the new website, there is a WhatsApp poll on the ICC WhatsApp Group – please respond to the poll to choose which group you would like to ride with. For those that are not on the WhatsApp Group, you will need to respond to this email to confirm whether you are riding and which group you want to ride with – please do not just turn up for the ride.

For the safety of all riders, we operate a ‘no drop’ policy on our Saturday rides.

We ask folks to pre-select groups, either 1, 2 or 3, based on average speed – please note: speeds are a rough guide and may vary up or down on the day depending on conditions.
Group 1: 26-29kph / 16-18mph
Group 2: 22-26kph / 14-16mph
Group 3: 21-24kph / 13-15mph

We will endeavour to accommodate your group selection, dependent on rider numbers and the availability of ride leaders. If you want to challenge yourself, you can select a faster group than usual with the option of dropping down after the coffee stop.

As always, please monitor the weather forecast and come prepared for all eventualities.

Front and rear lights are recommended for increased visibility.

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

Happy cycling

Gary
