    The track has now reopened and you have to do a reaccreditation , which will be a basic check of your track skills.
    So what should you do before you attend, if you ride tubs check that the tub is still glued to the rim and the glue has not become brittle , test by trying to take the tub of the wheel, check that the tub is still attached to the lighter base part of the tub, inflate and check for cracks in the rubber , if looking iffy replace. If your tubs not glued you shouldn’t be riding on taped tubs so get them glued.
    For clinchers , check that they are holding air, and that the rubber has not cracked or perished , again if looking iffy replace .
    After you have completed you first visit you will be able to book a coach lead session, there will be no drop in sessions for the next few months , this means that everybody will be doing the same thing during the session, plus numbers will be limited, these sessions will develop as numbers increase .

    Looks like more than probable that there will be a delay to the track opening, it’s likely to depend on the FM announcement on C19 levels for Glasgow at the end of the week but with current case numbers being high it looks like Glasgow staying in Level 3

    The track at the moment don’t remove accreditation yet for time away from the track, they have wanted to introduce such a system but haven’t yet ,

    Would love to, but, COVID aside, it will be dependent on work commitments, which are still being drawn up. Will keep a close eye on this.
    thanks for posting.

    The second reliability run on 14th Feb will be hosted by RCCK, and it's 76 km round the Big Foot Hills route in Watopia. Follow D.Hodders (RCCK) to receive an invitation if you haven't already got one.

    XXX reacted to AlanT in Virtual Reliability Ride #1 - 7th Feb   
    I've created the first of the experimental reliability rides for Sunday 7th Feb. It's 65 km, roughly the same distance as the normal reliability ride #1 Tour of Renfrewshire, but without the snow, ice and wind.
    The idea is for three groups of riders, cruising at 2, 2.5 and 3 W/KG respectively (maybe a bit higher on the uphill bits), leaving 15 minutes apart (09:15. 09:30 and 09:45), and finishing together. This is an experimental format, so I will probably have to tweak it for the following week.
    I've invited every club member who's following me on Zwift (and a couple of special guests), so if you want to take part, and you're not following me, you need to do that so that I can extend the invitation.
    Please post up to indicate which group you intend to ride with. If there's no-one from one of the groups, we'll skip that slot.
    I intend to ride with the middle group at 2.5 W/KG, rolling out at 09:30.
    I have no idea how this is going to work, so think of the fun we can have, finding out together.

    Hi All
    With the current fun times that is a COVID pandemic , the February camp will obviously not take place , so with the likelihood of travel restrictions being lifted in the spring , I am planning to go over to Spain October / November. Think what a bounce a Sunny block of endurance miles will do before the onset of winter. The temperature in Spain October/ November is pleasant to warm . Anyway if anybody else is thinking about it it would be good to get a decent group , at the moment I think my gaff may be full , but that will depend on when dates are fixed, which obviously depends on travel restrictions being lifted .
    post if interested

    Would be heading to Calpe in summer Billy as I have a villa booking transferred from July 20 to July 21. The thought of the silky smooth mountain roads and sunshine is what is keeping me going. And trying to beat my PB on the Col de Rates 🌞

    Thanks, Eric. I hope the fact they will now be breaking the law resonates with those who until now have chosen not to comply with a reasonable request to tweak their cycling activities.

    XXX got a reaction from Dave F in Advice on Pedals & Cleats   
    Firstly your cleats , these will wear out depending on how much walking you do on them, generally they can last a long time if you limit the amount of walking , however some maintenance on your cleats help prolong their life, and help better retention , on the front edge of the cleat it’s good practice to take any feather edges off with a file .
    The pedal body you are using although not as good as Look it’s used by a number of pedal based power meters so not all that bad.
    Noises well these can be from your pedal bearings , either worn or dry, cleat bolts , pedal threads and maybe too much float, what colour cleat do you use 
    When I came back to cycling the thoughts were have a lot of float so you don’t get sore knees, so I used red cleats max float, however I found too much float hurts my knees so now ride medium float grey cleats or zero float black cleats , however I clean and lube my pedals every three months .
    Would I change to shimano no not if I am happy with what I am using
