Drumlanrig Root Rats Coaching Thursday 6th August

This weeks Sprogs coaching session (U12 group) will run from 17:15 to 18:30 and the Yoofs (U16 group) will run from 19:00 to 20:30. This weeks session for the Yoofs will be a coaching session based on the new singletrack that we completed in this evenings trail building session.

The Scottish Cycling summer series of Regional Schools of Racing continues with road focussed events in Aviemore and Kelso. More details of these coaching events can be found on the club blog (http://www.rootrats.blogspot.com/); note that road bikes are not required for younger riders. Further to these two events, there is a town centre criterium race in Hawick on the 16th August and this is open to Youth A,B, C and D categories. Entry details are given on the British Cycling web-site.

We have noticed that not many females have taken an interest in the club activities and we would like to encourage mums, daughters and big sisters to get together for an informal ride on Thursdays whilst Rik's Sprogs session is on. So why not give it a go this week and bring your wheels along this Thursday for a short ride between 17:30 and 18:30.

Finally, thanks to everyone who turned up to tonights trail building session. The next session will be held on Tueaday the 1st September - the first Tuesday of the month!
