Killynure - BRICK (26th April 2011)

This training session comprises the straight out and back Killynure bike course followed by a 2 mile run off the bike. The run takes in most of the first hill on the Killynure Road; the turn point convienently marked by a calor LPG butane cyclinder.

The riders went off in one minute intervals on a coolish dry evening.

Mechanical of the night went to Karl who leaned too heavily on his aero bars [one too many Easter Eggs?] making them loose and causing him to record a DNF.

Rising star Angela Burns produced a strong run to come home 1st girl and 9th overall. Angela is one of many who have been improving their running this year by taking part in the popular Park Run 5Ks.

Also of note is David Morrisey who took over 1 minute off his Killynure bike time of 2 weeks ago.

With all these good performances it is perhaps no wonder people are complaining about how tight their aero helmets are becoming!

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.
