Race 3 Results (14th April 2009)

Good conditions and everybody on time for the Temple start! Enda is now officially the man to beat, comfortably winning a second week in a row. Two weeks ago we had Glen grinning like a chesire cat and Desi looking down at his feet. Tonight the roles were somewhat reversed. This was repeated in many similar battles the whole way down the field.

I must raise my hand and admit a mistake! Despite having done the course before and being responsible for drawing the map I managed to miss the turn and took a nice wee trip to Ballynahinch garage. Also worthy of a mention is Wes who completed the course despite breaking his collar bone two weeks ago (good thing we don't test for Ibrofen). Finally, a welcome back to the triathletes' from Olympia after a weeks warm weather training.

Next week promises to be a bit of fun with the 2UP; it could be the start or end of some beautiful relationships.

TT Training 2019

2019 Rules

You must have a TI licence (a training licence is sufficient), be a member of a triathlon club and have working front AND rear lights on your bike. Cycling helmets are also mandatory. For events marked (ATH) - this means it is an athletes TT, meaning that no TT equipment should be used, such as TT bikes, TT bars, aero helmets etc. You can of course turn up with TT equipment, however, you should be prepared for general teasing and mickey taking as the penalty for doing so!

As we are riding on public roads, the rules of the roads apply. The committee have notified the PSNI of our plans for the season; being seen and riding safely are of paramount importance - these events are very enjoyable and will improve your time trialling, but we should all stay safe when participating in them and we all have a responsibility to ensure that this happens.
