Word just in from Glencoe…
Glencoe Mountain Resort is delighted at very late notice to welcome the first round of the Extreme Winter Downhill Series to Glencoe this weekend (12th & 13th Nov).
The event was originally scheduled for AE forest but problems with that venue led to the late change to Glencoe. Despite only getting word on Monday everything is now ready for the event, chairs are back on, bike clamps have been re-fitted and the café has re-opened. Practice will be on Saturday and racing on Sunday. The chairlift will be open for spectators on both days and the café will be open from 9am – 9pm on Saturday and 9am – 4.30pm on Sunday.
With a sunny weekend forecast the organisers are hoping that this could be the weekend where the Glencoe track gets a chance to show its true colours.
