Good weather conditions created some close and fast times. Worthy of mention is Olympian triathlete Ali McConnell who dug deep and earned herself a PB.
Gareth Martin finally got the aero bars on his hybrid bike and took about 4 minutes off his last Temple TT time. It sounds like the bars will be staying.
The biggest mistake of the night was made by Jim Cooke turning up without a helmet. Luckily he was able to borrow a helmet and even luckier his head was able to squeeze into it!
"Slippery eel" award of the night went to Ricky Cowen OBE (On Bike Every-week) who got out of time keeping once again. I suppose if one turns up in ones battle gear then one is probably expecting to race, isn't one?

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.
