WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING IN THE MONKEY HOUSE?

GORILLA ENDURANCE

That man's been at it again ! Neil Cocklin rode out to Gospel Pass on Saturday , that's 300km ( nearly 200 miles) , with a whopping 5000m (16500ft) of Climbing - no wonder he was drinking gallons of orange squash when i saw him on Sunday. Chapeau mate.

GORILLA SPRING CLASSIC

Get involved in our 3 person team Spring Classic over the weekend of 29th or 30th March - on a 100km route similar to the original Mad March Hare . Within our What's App community there is now a dedicated group (GSC 29-30th March) where you'll find all the details , including a pinned spreadsheet for you to enter your team, or put your name down if you're looking for a team.

GORILLA CLUB KIT

Don't forget club kit ( jersey £50, cap £15, snood £15) is available to purchase from the members area in our website . The buying window closes on 4th April, so get it in quick. I will bring the fit samples we have in sizes M, L, XL, and 12 again on Thursday if people wish to try them on.

GORILLA ZWIFT

Eugene Vichare is leading our club session this Wednesday at 6.30pm - 24.1km on the Coast to Coast circuit in Watopia, the band is on to keep us all together, and it should take us approx 45 minutes to complete. Book onto the ride via the Gorilla Cycling Club section of the Zwift companion app.
