Killynure - league#7 (28th June 2016)

The forecast rain made a no-show and the TT riders hit the Killynure hills hard sporting more hi-viz wrist bands than at a Coldplay concert.

Miss Stewart broke her duck [not literally - delete thought - cute little yellow duck] on the course and said afterward that it was "horrific" and "the course was much easier driving in the car". Stewart is currently being headhunted by leading political parties.

Needless to say, the beast was stunned. 
Whip-crack went his Whoopy tail, 
And the beast was done. 
He asked us: "Be you angels?" 
And we said, "Nay. We are but men." 
Rock!

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.
