Old Scotch Cycling Club: ‘For the love’

WORDS AND PHOTOGRAPHS: Mr MICK LIN (’03)

‘Once again, the winter solstice has passed, and while the promise of the warmer glow from the north is glimmering, it is still a distant promise, a hope, subjugated by the knowledge that the darkest days of winter are but to be felt. It is only the true gladiators of the road that face up to mother nature during her seasonal menopause, those people who know the dangers and challenges that await them.’ B Davy, July 2009.

The Old Scotch Cycling Club caters for riders of all levels and ages who share a passion for cycling. We run fortnightly rides down Beach Road, meeting at the corner of Glenhuntly Road and Ormond Esplanade in Elwood.

We also host social breakfast and coffee rides around Melbourne.

The club invites all cyclists from the Scotch Family and their friends to visit our website and sign up: www.oldscotchcycling.com.

For further details please visit our website or contact us at oldscotchcycling@gmail.com. Happy riding. GS
