Loch Tummel Sailing Club runs the Up an Dun long-distance race, a seven-nautical-mile course down the loch and round An Dun Island, known for its shifty, unpredictable winds off the surrounding hill combined with a pursuit race where boats try to catch up to each other to finish all together at once. The very strong winds led to a new course record for visitors Stewart and Sarah Robertson of 24 minutes to the island in their RS400 with the overall event going to Jamie Calder and Eily Hill in a RS200. The event was topped off with a BBQ and ceilidh with sailors dancing Strip the Willow down the lochside to tunes by local musicians.
This year’s ‘Tummel Week’ - 5 days of races, games and family activities - followed on from the Up and Dun event directly was a bit quieter with the Optimist Nationals drawing away a number of families who would normally attend. Again the strong winds prevailed but all races were completed along with a challenging Quiz night and a fantastic BBQ on the last evening.
The overall winner for the week was Ben Barron (the club’s current commodore) and Fi Grieve in an RS400.
There’s such a lot going on at the club in a beautiful setting - why not come along to the club any Sunday afternoon and see what it is all about - contact [email protected] or visit our website www.lochtummelsc.org.

Scottish Pupils Gear Up for 2026 Scottish Schools’ Mountain Bike Championships as Female Participation Reaches New High - Entries close TODAY - Those schools still keen to enter can visit: www.sientries.co.uk/event.php?event_id=17359
More than 420 pupils from 86 schools across Scotland are expected to compete in this year's Scottish Schools’ Mountain Bike Championships, (SSMBCs) at Comrie Croft in Perthshire on Tuesday, 22 September 2026. Now in its fourth year, the championships have attracted their biggest entry to date, with around one in six competitors being female - the highest proportion since the event began in 2023.
Morrison's Academy in Crieff, is partnering with Comrie Croft and Scottish Cycling to deliver the award-winning event which is Scotland’s largest school mountain bike competition.
Pupils will compete across three race categories - Junior (S1/2), Intermediate (S3/4) and Senior (S5/6) - with female, male races and mixed team races scheduled throughout the day. Competitors are traveling from across the country to take part from Inverness in the Highlands to Moffat in the Scottish Borders.
The championships, which won Scottish Cycling’s Event of the Year award in 2023, aim to give young riders the opportunity to race against their peers in a national grassroots competition, while encouraging pupils new to the sport to experience racing for the first time.
Andrew Donaldson, Founding Director of Comrie Croft, said: “It’s brilliant to see how much the SSMBCs have grown in just four years. Bringing hundreds of young people together from schools across Scotland creates a brilliant atmosphere and is a fantastic reflection of the growing appetite for mountain biking among our young people.
“We will have pupils who are already racing seriously alongside those pinning a number to their bike and lining up at a start line for the very first time. Hopefully, they all leave with the same thing - a big smile, a sense of achievement and an urge to get back out on their bikes.”
Joint sponsors for this year’s event are Alpine Bikes and Tradstocks Scottish Stone.
The 2026 championships will also be the first to take place with Catherine Precious as Rector of Morrison’s Academy, following her recent appointment. Catherine is the first female Rector in the school’s 166 year history.
Mrs Precious said: “There is something very special about an event where young people are encouraged to test themselves, take on a challenge and discover what they can achieve. Mountain biking demands determination and resilience, but it is also enormous fun and creates a real sense of camaraderie.
“I’m particularly encouraged that almost 20% of this year’s competitors are female. As Morrison’s Academy’s first female Rector, it is wonderful to see more girls finding their place in a sport that challenges them, builds confidence and gives them the opportunity to discover just how capable they are.”
