Killynure TT 26th June

A fine nights racing expertly marshalled by Desi and Mark G.

Vaughan again showed his class with a sub 20 minute effort, with Enda following closely behind. Peter again proved that a mid season operation wasn't going to keep him down for long and is heading back to his best again.

There may be Emma's in different clubs, but there is only one Emma K in our little band of TTers, finishing an impressive third overall and the first woman, while Leeanne continued her steady improvement with a sub 30 minute effort.

Next weeks race is at the Harbour Estate and will start at 7:15 to allow for the call centre traffic to disperse. The route is slightly different from last year, so pay attention to Leeanne's instructions at the start.

Just a reminder, bring along your TI licence as we need to make a note that everyone is properly covered.

Vaughan 19:28
Enda 20:34
Emma K 24:06
Peter McG 26:25
Gary 27:29
Leeanne 29:56

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.
