There is plenty of parking in the business centre (see photo above) - please do not use the River House Restaurant car park.



Group format will be the same as last year: groups of ~20 riders with the fast/scratch group away first at 10:00 and time splits of 3 mins between each group.



Stirling Bike Club have taken out insurance for their event. Could riders please bring along a couple of quid each, this will cover our insurance costs and the remainder will be donated to Strathcarron Hospice.



There is normally a sign-on but this year we will definitely need to take contact details of all riders for contact tracing purposes.
