October sees us revert to the shorter Sunday morning rides for the winter period, and sees also our first ride over the long-awaited Govan Bridge.
We will start by heading to the bridge at Yorkhill Quay and cross to Govan, though it’s unlikely to be as busy as it was the opening weekend!

This ride will see us visit Strathclyde Country Park with the outward route via Cambuslang, Blantyre and Bothwell, and return via Bellshill and Mount Vernon.
Our July ride will see us cycle out to Balloch and Helensburgh.
We will head through the western side of Glasgow before reaching Bearsden and Milngavie. Along the way we will pass a couple of historic buildings. After visiting the Mugdock and Craigmaddie Reservoirs, we will return towards Glasgow along the Bears Way, and then join the Forth & Clyde Canal to head towards Speirs Wharf, finishing around lunchtime.
This ride will see us take a tour around some of the parks, sporting venues, and other attractions around the south side of the city.
We will start with the south west of the city and work around to the south east, ending up back at the River Clyde in time for lunch.
Happy New Year GoBikers!
For our annual ride focusing on cycle infrastructure in Glasgow, we shall take a look at a number of new and recent developments on the north side of the city.
