Killinchy 7th August

This was a night when there were more offers of timekeepers than ever! Glen did the honorable thing and allowed Emma K to race while he marshalled the turnaround.

Ramesh made a first racing appearance of the season, clocking an impressive 27:42.. there'll be more come as he finds his racing legs over the next few weeks!

Vaughan and Conor McG battled it out for gold with Sean completing the podium.

Vaughan P- 21:04
Conor McG - 21:32
Sean O - 24:46
Desi Mc - 25:15
Emma K - 25:40
Peter McG - 25:51
Ramesh R - 27:42

Will Conor close the gap on Vaughan? Will Enda return supercharged after his holiday? Will Desi keep Emma and Peter at bay? Will Ramesh make a second appearance of the season? Will the Sharkeys make a welcome appearance? All to be revealed at Killynure next week!

Thanks to Gary and Glen for marshalling. Sean O'Hagan and Conor Preshaw will cover Killynure.

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.
