Season 2013 kickoff

Online Entry
It looks like we will not have the online entry ready in time for the first TT. There has been a delay with the bank concerning signatures. Hence for the first week do not bring your £25 - money will only be taken through the online system. The entry system should be in place for the second week; at this time only those entered through the online system may participate.

First night instructions
A couple of simple things to remember for the first TT at Killynure:
  • Arrive at the Carryduff layby for signon by 18:30 at the latest.
  • People driving should park at the Carryduff layby; we do not want anyone parking on the Killynure Road.
  • Have your TI license ready and rear light on the bike.
  • Only the first 50 sign-ons accepted. There is no holding of places for others. This will be the normal procedure this year.
  • Be ready to roll from the startline on the Killynure Road from18:45.
  • Remember your allocated number and shout it clearly at the timekeepers.
  • Cycle safely as you would on any normal open public road.
  • If overtaking another rider, give a shout to let them know you are coming past.
This is your mission should you choose to accept it.....

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.
