Portaferry TT and Update

Ards TT
Well done to anyone who braved the weather for the Ards TT - I wimped out! Results should be posted at some point on the Ards CC website:
Ards CC Results

Maximum limit reached
We now have 50 unique names of people who have entered a Legends TT. It is good that people are enjoying the league but 50 is the maximum limit and hopefully not everyone will turn up on the same night. It would be appreciated if people do not invite anymore friends etc. along so the organisers do not have to turn people away.

Calendar change
The race calendar will be amended in the next few days as we are not allowed to participate in the Hill Climb Championship (23rd June) or the 25 mile TT Championship (13th August) as we are not members. These two events will be replaced with something similar at a different venue.

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.
