2009-04-10/13 - Glasgow Fixed Gear Easter Weekender

Glasgow Fixed Gear & Single-speed Easter Weekender
Friday 10th - Sunday 13th April 2009

We (glasgowfgss.com) are proud to announce a weekend of cycling events in Glasgow for dérailleur-less riders. We've got 4 main events (see flyer above), there's a £2 entry fee for the 3 competitive events and hopefully they'll be enough cash left over for booze and food on the Sunday.

We have an amazing box of prizes worth over £200 so far thanks to generous donations from Velo Solo, Urban Hunter, Bagaboo, Gear, Willy Bain.

For those of you travelling from out of town there are a couches/floors available (post below if you can offer a berth or need one) and there's also the eurohostel in town.

All of the events start from George Square in the city centre.

Any questions, enquiries about rules or specifics etc please post them below.

This is going to be good. The hill climb in particular should be a laugh

I think my knees would explode if I tried to cycle up gardner street!

aye for those who haven't seen gardener street:
