Glasgow Bike Umbrella - where we post all the events.

A few of us have started a Facebook page where we will try and post all the events that are happening in Glasgow.

Primarily it will be those organised by us ie alleycats, fixed beers etc, but we will also try and post up other events that may be of interest.

The idea is to hopefully reach a larger audience than we can individually, thusly making our events bigger and better.

I assumed it was a few of you guys, is it effectively a replacement for the GFGSS facebook page?

Hi, yeah, kind of...

I can't really remember what got posted on the gfgss page.

We want the Glasgow Bike Umbrella page to be a way of keeping a lot of people (more than we might have in our own personal friends network) informed of lots of rides and races and stuff.

The aim is really just to get more people coming to things regardless of what type of bike they have or what type of rider they are.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
