Following the success of last years Glasgow Fixed-Gear & Single-Speed Easter Weekender we've decided to do it all again, but this time with more prizes. The events will happen over the Easter weekend from Friday 2nd April to Sunday 4th April. For all the events, the meeting place will be George Square.
If you have any questions or want to find a floor to crash on, post below.

I have a Son of Son cap it's very nice!
-
Hillclimb, maybe train out to Croy first to save those running on 40" gears spinning their legs off.
-
Whoosh! Nice one.
-
Amazing.

Tak ma doon TT, polo and then an alley cat- that's a brutal day of cycling.
-
-
Here is the TT. And here is the elevation profile:
-
Thats from Kilsyth isn't it?
I'm going to have to to do some recces on this.
-
Yes, from Kilsyth.
-
I was thinking about suggesting a hillclimb the other day. I was going to propose the Cult Brae.
Is it definitely going to be the Tak? The Cult Brae is a nice wee climb used by many a club for their club hillclimbs and it's a lot closer to Glasgow (and there's a pub not too far from the top). I don't mind doing the Tak it's just it'll be bit much before polo, time and fitness wise.
-
On second thoughts, I could drive out to Kilsyth, and then drive home and get the polo bike. Anyone want a lift to Kilsyth?

How far away is the Tak?
Anymore than a couple miles on my polo gear is a right cunt. -
-
It's a long way away. Out beyond Kirkintilloch, if that means anything. Rusty's posted a bikely map just above which you can zoom out on to get the context.

Yeah i dont think i'd be bothering riding out for that.
-
-
it's 12.8 fairly flat miles out to the start of the tak.
I think it is a bit far out myself, i'm up for it but i wouldn't be polo gearing it.
anyone got a map of the Cult Brae for Rusty?
-
The Cult Brae is out at Strathblane/Blanefield.
-
What? We're playing bike polo ? I'll be in Sweden that week. Ugh!
-
Ok, spelling fail it's actualy the Cuilt Brae.

I thought Kilsyth was a lot further out of town than Strathblane but it's not, so it'll not make that much difference. -
I can do the Friday & Saturday, but can't get Sunday off unfortunately. Sad face.
-
i'm up for it all but i'kll have to play it by ear with regards to work.
