2023 Subscriptions martin Posted August 14, 2020 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Hi all, an enquiry from bike radar. Any of our more mature members know anything? Hello Johnstone wheelsers! My name is Jack Luke and I am the Assistant Editor at BikeRadar.com I hope you’re doing well and had a nice weekend? A quick question – a friend of mine recently became the custodian of the Kinross CTC club hut: https://www.cyclinguk.org/group/post/hut https://www.instagram.com/p/CDrYQkuFSOh/ I am fascinated by these huts and their history. They sit outside of the bothying tradition and very little has been written about them. I recalled that, in Ian R Mitchell's book 'Walking through Scotland's History', that a number of cycling clubs had huts at Carbeth. Alonside the Clarion, the Carbeth Hutters association believe that the Lomond Roads and Johnston Wheelers had a presence there. Do you, or does anyone in your club, know about any hut that the club owned or maintained at Carbeth (or elsewhere) before your current clubhouse? I’m in the early days of researching this piece but putting feelers out for now. I hope to hear from you soon. All the best, Jack Luke Assistant editor, BikeRadar.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kenny MacDonald Posted August 14, 2020 Members Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 Cant recall anyone talking about a hut at Carbeth in club history . Individuals had huts and probably the best person to talk to about this would be JJ Harris ( Clarion who used to run the Trossachs TT) who still has a hut out in that area .
