About the Event

Info for Riders

In our opinion, Robert Millar is still the greatest Grand Tour rider ever to come out of the British Isles and he trained extensively on the roads around Glasgow. The event celebrates much of what Robert Millar was famous for: the challenge of climbing and it negotiates a number of well known climbs including the Tak ma Doon road, the Top of The World and the Crow Road. With two routes, a 95 mile and a 46 mile option this event will challenge all riders. Participating in the event will help to support a development programme for a new generation of promising young cyclists via Glasgow Wheelers CC & The Braveheart Cycling Fund 95 mile & 46 mile route options Changing and shower facilities at Fintry Sports & Recreational Club, Kippen Road, Fintry, G63 0YA
