anyone know anywhere in glasgow-ish thats ice free? looking to get out tomorrow. tryed the canal and lennox forrest and carron vally today but all no go. think i'll end up linking all the wastland/fielsa near my house but would prefair some good miles. cheers
You can still ride @ mugdock park, if you park at the visitor centre and cross the moor to woods the trails in the actual woods are very rideable, dont get me wrong its not gonna be an epic ride just two or three loops in the woods but it keeps the legs spinning, you can maybe get an hour and half or so , better than nothing 🙂
what he said....., but it is pretty crap and the chances of getting caught out if icy stuff catches you unawares are waay high.
GMBC ride last night (usual Wed has 7 plus)..... zero riders - maybe we are wimps, but in reality most of us have ridden on and off last week or 2 and had some nasty stacks - just not worth it for now.
Top Moor is still ok, but linking up rideable stuff is nigh impossible for a decent ride at the mo.
dancingfool, how bad was CV? Was it just ice, or ice and snow? I was going to head out for a wee night ride before the celebrations tomorrow eve..
well the car park was closed the tak ma doon road was closed and the snow on the bridge wat about 2 inchs deep. not ice just frozen snow. thinking heading to mabie then, but taking my sister for her first "proper" rire" blue too much right now?
IT's almost entirely thawed here at the foot of the campsies. IS it that bad on the other side?
i treid to head out to mugdock today, was solid with ice, cycled in from the milngavie end, it was horrible, i ended up bailing out on to the roads, cycle out for a bit then cycled back home through the city centre, just to get some miles in, mugdock will take another wee while to thaw by the looks of it.
