Dennis Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Please note that the date for this event has now been changed to Sunday 16th May 2010, and it is hoped that many of you can still join riders from the Clyde Valley on this great run. Reminder of background to this run: This year's run (4th successive year) will be held on the above date. All are most welcome to come along for this run in fantastic Borders countryside. Free entry. Start - Blackwood Hall 9.30am To get there via M8 through Glasgow, switch to M73 then M74 till J8 Proceed 300 yards to Canderside Roundabout Turn left on B7078 3.5 miles to Blackwood Proceed past church and school on left to small crossroads at corner shop Turn left - Blackwood Hall is 100 yards up on the right [should take about 40 minutes from Johnstone to Blackwood on a Sunday morning] The route will take in Biggar, Broughton, Stobo, Meldons, Eddleston, then Peebles (with a few variations) and the Hub cafe at Glentress - where lunch will be served (at your own expense ). One of the main objectives of this run has been to keep the group together for the whole distance. It's an exercise in pacing, stamina and looking after each other, as well as enjoying the scenery, ra banter and meeting the objective! As usual, Morag said she will be laying on (free) soup and cakes afterwards - not to be missed! If you are interested in coming along on this new date, please post. Looking forward to seeing you on the day. Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Richard Posted April 26, 2010 Members Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 That's me out, I think. I did a shift swap to make sure I wasn't working on May 9th. But now the date has changed, there's no chance of annual leave and very little hope of a last-minute swap. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
