Gary Sutherland, Life Cycle: A Bike Ride Round Scotland

Friday 12th September 2014 at 7.30pm
Bothwell Castle Golf Club
Sponsored by Patersons Quarries


Gary Sutherland and his brother decided to recapture their childhood cycling round the Morayshire coast, and ended up cycling 1000 miles around Scotland. From the mountains of the highlands to the traffic-jams of the city, their road trip revealed as much about themselves – both painful and hilarious – as it did about the country. What do you notice when you’re cycling that you miss from a car windscreen?

He’s a great character and his talk was very well received at the Book Festival in Glasgow. This is your chance to meet him and hear his story.

Tickets: £5 available from Bothwell Post Office
