2023 Subscriptions GrahamF Posted July 11, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 This week it's a 25TT on A77, start at 7pm so meet at 6:45, The route is: Start at the roundabout at the A77 with the Eaglesham B764 road,and head north up the A77 to the roundabout just after the Malletsheugh (on the edge of Newton Mearns) and turn. Head back out on the A77 pass through 3 roundabouts and turn at the 4th at the B751 Kilmaurs road. Back up the A77 passing the East Renfrewshire golf club, finishing at the Motorway signpost about 1/3 mile past the golf club. ​This is the IvyCC course that some members may have ridden before. Here's a link to a route map: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/777931811 I'll come up and timekeep, another pair of hands to hold up would be welcome. Please post if you intend to ride.

Guest EPCC Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Sorry will not be supporting this event or any other club confined on a course so far from home In fact as this was rather backhanded will not support another confined event There is no reason to move from the course we have been using without incident to a course miles from Johnstone totally disgusted with the sneakey backhanded way this has been done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions GrahamF Posted July 12, 2015 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Billy, the course was decided based on feedback on the bunch earlier in the season. This showed a clear preference for the A77 route. We can decide on routes for next year based on similar member input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 When Don't think there ever was a discussion on changing the route. Made my point will not support this or any other event show me the results from the discussion with the bunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions George Posted July 12, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Graham, thank you for all your work on the confined events. The A77 is certainly an improvement on the Lugton course & (for me) only 10 mins further than the fabled Westferry. The problem (for me) isn't the venue, it's because it's on a Tuesday & clashes with the sewing bee. I appreciate the sewing bee isn't an official club ride but it does get a good turn out from the competitive sorts who might otherwise ride the confined events. That's why I'd like to suggest we move confined events to a Saturday morning. This may also suit others who are a bit tight for time midweek but could spare a couple of hours on a Saturday. I appreciate the dates are set for this year but perhaps next year? Thanks again, George Alan Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Life Members chung Posted July 13, 2015 Life Members Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Graham, seeing how it's down my neck of the woods, I'll come down to help to allow folks to ride. I'll be there for 6.30-ish then. (I'll do the holdy-uppy, as I'm not sure on the time keep thingy :-)) See you there Cheers Chung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions carol cowan Posted July 13, 2015 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Thanks Graham for all your hard work on the confined events I can't make this one as I am working. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions GrahamF Posted July 13, 2015 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Thanks Chung for volunteering to help with this, but unless we have any riders posting that they plan to compete before midday tomorrow (Tuesday), I suggest we assume there will be no riders and cancel the event.

Members Richard Posted July 14, 2015 Members Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 If there's no interest in a 25 at this time, would anyone be up for a Westferry 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
