GGCC ‘for shits and giggles’ 2-up Time Trial – Sunday 31st October 2021

 

A wee bit of TT ‘fun’ before next weeks ‘The Valley and The Crow’………..

 

Skin suits, disks and TT bikes ok BUT….its for shits and giggles so why bother?

Suggest we pair folk up absolutely randomly by a ‘names in hat’ approach at sign on?.......

 

Please meet under the McLennan Arch on the green for 8:30am sharp start.

Bit of a unique one this week, as we will be riding out of the green and heading up to the Fairweather Hall for sign on for the ‘for shits and giggles’ end of season ‘fun’ time trial.

 

Those competing will then make their way to the start line at their allocated time (located at A77 golf club entrance) and compete in the standard GGCC 10 mile TT route. After the event there will be prize giving, refreshments, snacks and banter for you and your guests.

 

For those that want a club ride after the event then that can be arranged over coffee and chat at The Fairwether hall depending on numbers and weather.

 

For those leaving from the Arch on Sunday morning, we will go through some basic safety, first aid and basic bike maintenance before we set off so that everyone stays safe and knows exactly what’s happening on the ride up the sign on.

 

For those coming straight up to the hall, sign on opens at 9.15am sharp

 

*PLEASE CAN EVERYONE BE SIGNED ON AND READY FOR THE RACE BRIEFING FOR 9.45am**

Can all marshalls be ready for their briefing at 9.30am

 

Hopefully we will be busy with GGCC’ers and guests so to make sign on quick please make sure you fill in the following –

 

NO ENTRY FEE 😊

 

We will need names and DOB for both riders – Wee Dobboo will be looking after sign on so sign your name and then give me the detail for the electronic time sheet.

 

Categories for simplicity on the day are – Male / Female / Mixed across all categories.

 

We will award top 3 in each category for the craic and remember this is a season ending fun event!........but as its for fun no prize money for this event……just the kudos of being the best! 😉

 

The weather looks to be rain, with a 13mph SSE wind gusting to 25mph (tail out and headwind back)……you will get wet so maybe bring a change for when you get back to the hall?

 

So……..TT bikes optional, skin suits optional, pointy hats optional, deep section wheels and disks……optional…….you…..a big smile….mandatory!......lets have some type 2 fun!

Looking forward to seeing you all.
