Carryduff - Ballgowan League Race 1 (29th March 2011)

Desi's Monday night pool side talk must have made an impact as there were an impressive number of people at sign-on before 6:15pm. This really helps so thank you to those people.

A cold and misty night did not deter a record turnout - almost 50 including the time keepers. There is a cap of around 50 people so these Tue night training events are essentially full (first-come-first-served).

A few points that people may not be aware of:
1) Shout your number loud and clearly when you cross the line; no-one is breaking the sound barrier so you will not lose any time.
2) Everyone shares the time keeping. Over the season you should only have to time keep twice. Don't be shy volunteering.
3) If it's ever a misty night again please use a rear light.

The first week is always a bit business like and we'll get to critiquing the clothes and bikes next week.

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.
