Carryduff - Ballygowan League Race #10 (16th Aug 2011)

This was the last league race of the season on the Carryduff - Ballgowan course. It may be late in the season but there were a few new/old faces present; Neil Darby, Mark Brown and Tony McNulty all making their first appearances.

Best performance of the night arguably went to that mild mannered gentleman Davy Calvert who put one over on his rivals. The rivals acted pleased for him afterward but there will no doubt be a few going home to plan their next bike upgrade!

What game is Boylan playing? Surely someone who can knock out a 61min cycle in an Olympic triathlon can do better than 18th place? Close monitoring of Boylan's pre-race "fuelling" compulsary at next race.

Finally why is it that Enda Marron's cycle computer is always slower than the stopwatch? We will be writing to the BBC to make a Horizon documentary on this strange quantum phenomenon.

Notice: can anyone give Sara a lift to Kenmare? Poor Sara deparately wants to use her Kiwi skills to find the Lost Sheep.

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.
