Isle of Mull Cycling Club - News and Updates

NEWS AND UPDATES

Hello Fellow Club Cycle Members.

The Winter is coming... and the nights grow longer and the enthusiasm diminishes!

You start putting on the pounds and and grow tired and restless.

So we have to force ourselves to keep going even if its only to gaze in wonder at Donald's Long Shorts!

For a long time "Dave Beere" was the long short King but he is not match for Donald. When Donald stood next to him, Dave looked as if he was wearing Hot Pants. I believe they are made from ship canvas so there must be a huge sailing ship floundering in the ocean somewhere right now.

For the winter we are hoping to keep the time trials going and a team ride. Also a race and a day out in Fort William to brush up on Technical stuff. Also, if the weather is Ok, some night trips round Loch Frisa or Ardmore.

Hello Fellow Club Cycle Members.

The Summer is coming... I think, and the heart turns to the sound of wee lambs bleating in the fields and birds chirping away building nests and the feeling of warm sun on your back.

This is also the time to get thinking of maybe brushing the cobwebs off your bike and oiling your squeaky cranks... and your knees as well!!!!.

I know weekends can sometimes be hard to get out with work etc but we can go evenings now from 1800 hrs and even mornings 07.30 to 08.30 if need be some feedback would be nice to see what everyone would like to do.

And just in case you have any excuses regarding bikes we will inspect your bike for you and give it a service free of charge to club members if any parts are needed remember you will get 10% discount on them. You can also bring anyone long even if they are not members.

Our first 10 mile time trial of the year is 19th April starting from Salen to Fishnish road end and back. You can do this on any bike its not a race against anyone but just yourself to gauge on how you are improving as the year goes on. Anyone wanting to watch or help as timekeepers are more than welcome.
