Temple 24th July

First night back after the summer break brought 5 competitors to Temple. It even prompted a welcome guest appearance from Conor McG who showed off his skills with a super sub 27 minute time. Mark G put in a great effort to hold off the improving Peter McG and Emma K. Leeanne just missed out on the sub 40 minute mark but is still showing solid improvement race by race.

Conor McG 26:58
Mark G - 32:35
Peter McG - 32:54
Emma K - 33:19
Leanne S - 40:22

Next week is a rerun of the new route at the harbour estate.

Thanks to Conor P for the timekeeping duties.

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.
