Cycling: Falcons call at Cathkin
The last meeting at Cathkin was in the summer of 2007 when Alan Smith triumphed in an individual meeting.
Since then, the track, in the shadow of what remains of the former home of Third Lanark FC, has been unused. However, following a meeting with Glasgow Sport’s Cycling development officer Jake Lovatt to discuss a potential revival of the sport in the West of Scotland the circuit has been restored by volunteers including a number of Falcons riders and officials.
