Return to the Quay!

We will tentatively return to Springfield Quay this Wednesday night 15th of July to restart Bike Night, but we will need to be aware that this is not business as usual.

The Harvester Restaurant is unlikely to be open so there will be not Toilet facilities and all Social Distancing measures should be adhered to, that is 2 meters where possible were a mask where it’s not. (if the facilities are available, you will probably need to wear a mask to enter the Harvester)

Details of Bike Night at the Quay Click Here

We will be outside and attendees at bike night usually gather in small groups any way, but we urge people to try and keep to the 2 metre rule in these small groups and try and keep the groups to less than 15 people.

We will see how this goes on Wednesday Night before deciding on whither we will go ahead with the Monthly Ride out on Sunday.

For those that can’t make it or would rather wait until things are a bit more settled with the facilities back before going to the Quay, The Virtual Bike night on Zoom will still be in operations (See the directors email form last week for the link).

On Saturday night (7th March) was the Clyde Valley HOG 10 pin Bowling Championships. As always this was held at Hollywood Bowl at Springfield Quay. We had 30 bowlers and a few spectators cheering on their favourite Bowlers.

In the end it was a very close run event with only one point in it and with that single point being scored on the last throw of the night.
