Killynure - league#4 (19th May 2015)

At 18:45 on 19th May 2015, 10 hardy riders started out on the Killynure Road and one rider started at Temple. Indeed, "eejit of the week" goes to Neville O'Neill for turning up at Temple. Let's hope he turns up at the right Church for his upcoming wedding.

Some very fast times heading in the Saintfield direction (if you believe the bragging some people were doing close to 50mph) although the headwind and horribilis rain shower lowered the Garmin average speeds on the return.

Carl King had the luckiest escape of the night when his parked bike was nearly crushed by a Big Tractor, hi!

Thanks to time keepers Julie (who is more nervous time keeping than doing the TT) and Desi.

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.
