In addition riders should no longer meet up at the Volvo Garage at Easter Langlee in Galashiels but instead meet up at Tweedbank Railway Station at 4pm, leaving 4.15pm and arriving at The Greenyards at 4.30pm

The route could have wintery conditions & riders should be prepared & dress accordingly. Only experienced riders should take part in the ride and do so at their own risk.
