Temple 2LAP (16th July 2013)

The second 2LAP Temple TT ran in good conditions for a change.

Enzo Marron decimated the field, taking 70 seconds of his 2LAP Temple PB.

Mechanical failure this week went to Neville who had a problem with his bottom bracket.

Sporting acheivements outside of the TT are not usually mentioned in these blog posts. The main reason for this is there would be too many to consistently mention (showing what a talented bunch you are). However, congratulations go to Mark Millar this week for an excellent time of 10 hrs 1 min in Roth Ironman. Mark is a regular at the TT and has improved steadily over the last 12 months.

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.
