GGCC Club Run, Sunday 19th December 2021 - Balloch / Xmas Social
GGCC Christmas Social Ride - Last official GGCC Road Ride of 2021
Ho Ho Ho.........with Christmas just around the corner, ......its time to break out the Santa Hats and Tinsel!! Its time for our Xmas social ride, so go crazy with the Xmas decorations and get yourself and your bike dressed up and decorated for Xmas.
We have had mini Xmas trees on panniers, flashing frames, baubles, tinsel and santa hats and Penguins!! So lets see what craziness turns up this year!
Its the last official ride of 2021 before our 2 week Xmas break when we come back for the first ride of 2020 on Sunday 9th January so come along, get involved and have some fun!
Please meet under the McLennan Arch on the green for 8:30am sharp start.
We plan to head west to Balloch where we will invade McDonalds like a troop of little elves!!
We will head along South Street, along Dumbarton Road, to Clydebank, Old Kilpatrick, Bowling, Milton, Alexandria and then Balloch before returning.
Sunday is a social ride for fun so no paced groups and a good chance to round off the year with some banter and fun.
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 - make sure your baubles aren't hanging too low!?!?
For those of you who are first aid trained and have been issued first aid pack, can you please bring these along on Sunday (and each run you attend)
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THE ROUTE PRIOR TO SUNDAYS RIDE.
