Drumlanrig Root Rats Coaching Thursday 30th April 2009

Drumlanrig Root Rats coaching is on again this week for both primary and secondary age groups. The primary group starts at 17:15 and finishes at 18:30 and this weeks session will focus on cornering. The secondary secondary group starts at 19:00 and finishes at 20:30. As per usual, please try to turn up a bit before this to allow time to get bikes ready, sign on etc - 17:00 and 18:45 would be ideal.

For the secondary age group, this week is the second of our led rides in the forest and we have both Graeme Scott and Richard Lord with us. We are planning to cover last years SXC and NPS race route on our ride, taking in the "Black Alders" section of the red route together with the "Up First Down Climb". Please ensure that you dress suitably for the weather and remember to take along a water bottle and something to eat in case you get hungry.

There are quite a few events coming up in May under the Original Bicycle Festival including a fun day at Dalbeattie, Town Centre Crit races in Dumfries and CD, and Danny Macaskill of YouTube fame will be in town. See their web-site for more details. As soon as the OBF is out of the way, we will be on the run in to the Drumlanrig Dirt Crit under 16's race on the 20th June. More details of these events and more will be posted on our blog in the next few days.

Talking of the blog, there two reports have just been added to cover photos from the Newmilns mini DH and the results of last Sundays SXC race at Aberfoyle. Take a look for yourself below.
