This is not club development, it’s just an activity nothing more please remove this from the adults forum 

It really is a shame to see a grown man reduced to trolling positive threads on club forums

Okay, I’ll bite. Billy, gonna just give it a rest. It’s been tiresome for some time 

Barrhead - Irvine Road?

Thank you for all of the messages. It certainly was a big week. Two Stripey jumpers and a silver.

Miss Steele leaves for Manchester on Wednesday for a holding camp before flying out to Aigle for the Junior World Champs which start on the 15th August

Me? Well, I’ve just opened another bottle of red :-)

Kenny,

Not disputing it being easier for timekeepers & more sheltered for them. I’m also not disputing that it’s the riders responsibility to ride safely, however, if someone is on for a good time or PB they are going to hammer it into the roundabout.

My face is testament to the fact that some riders, in the heat of the moment, put (a wee bit) more speed over safety.

I fully agree with you

Are you not also going to be hammering up to the roundabout with the prospect of oncoming traffic wiping you out?

Then taking the roundabout at full speed.

Potential for disaster.

George,

The roundabout is arguably the one blind spot (at speed) on the whole course, and although there should be at least one Marshall at the bottom of the slip road, it is the rider’s responsibility to slow down and check the junction before proceeding onto the junction.

 The revised course was proposed to me about a year ago, with the explanation of ease of finishing rider identification for the timekeepers (and also shelter) but I decided to keep the Sam a Dooley on  the traditional finish as the BC risk assessment had been written, the course measured and it was what I felt comfortable with. I’m sure the revised finish will have been fully assessed by those using it as well

Why harder , down the ramp round the roundabout then 20m up the road , your not going up Bishopton hill 

Because it’s starting lower down the hill and you have to negotiate the roundabout for a second time before the slight rise to the bridge? Marginal, but harder :-)

Off at number 63. 

They've moved the start/finish, about 200m along, finishing under the railway bridge. I'm fairly certain that's not a good thing, although it does get finishers out of the way.

Alan,

if it’s the Westferry course then the revision is to assist the timekeepers as  it’s difficult on the existing course to determine which riders are finishing and which are coming through for the first time

Well done Richard 

Asking for a friend who is currently looking for a loan of a couple of hard shell bike boxes and wheel boxes for an Antipidean adventure In April / May

Can anyone assist?

Hi All     Can you inform any aspiring Riders who ride CTT Time Trials that CTT have a Young Riders funding scheme where riders under 25 can apply for funding help from CTT. If your club has a young rider who has shown potential and could benefit from financial support  they can apply to CTT by writing to Willie Cosh CTT Scotland Chairman for details of the process. ([email protected])

CTT Scotland are proposing to have a Season long Sporting Courses Series for 2019 and are inviting clubs to have their event included in the series. We currently have four events in 2018 that could form a basis of the series ie Carrick CC Hilly TT , The Ballachulish TT  , Tour of Loch Ken and the Tour of the Trossachs which gives a spread from April to October. These events will appeal to the "purists"  and the  "roadies" and will give a season long objective for all. If you would like to have your event included in the series for 2019 please get in touch. Any suggestions on format or overall awards would be welcomed and considered by the committee.    

 Best regards  Bill McMillan Secretary CTT Scotland

A message from Bill McMillan, Secretary CTT Scotland

Is there anyone interested in organising an Open event under CTT in 2018?

-------

Hi All just a wee reminder that we are still looking for your input for the events for the CTT handbook for 2018. Thanks to those of you who have already responded. Please help us provide events for all those in our cycling community and help our sport to grow in the future. I need your input by October 1st.    Thanks and regards  Bill McMillan Secretary CTT Scotland.  

Echoing Martin's comments above, thanks to all who helped out today. It promised to be wet but we got away with it

Congratulations to Ian Archibald, the 2017 JWCC Club 25m Time Trial Champion

For some reason I am unable to copy / paste onto the forum but I'll find a way and post up the full results

That's the Open events done for the season. We do pretty well at putting these on

Gang Forward!

What time at Bish Kenny?

8:15 pleas Alex

I'm in Kenny. Add me to the list please.

Cheers Mul

Please keep the dug on a short leash

Hi, George

Really appreciate your offer, but given that it's a club championship (and an opportunity to stick a stonking time in) I'm hoping that we'll have enough support from the membership and you and the other members will be able to ride

Will get back to you

Thanks, Kenny

That's really appreciated Scott

Joseph won't be able to marshal, due to his age, but we'll have something for him to do

Thanks, Kenny

Thanks Scott
