Carryduff Ballgowan - League #2 (17th April 2012)

For a Tuesday night training session there sure was a lot of interest in the times of other people.

A warm TT welcome goes to all the people making their debut tonight. Keep at it and your cycling is guaranteed to improve. This is the reason the TT league was started. Luckily the forecasted rain stayed away; however the air was chilly and not conducive to fast times.

Thanks to our series sponsor, McConvey Cycles. Please support the sponsor as much as you can because they really help make the league. Mike Millar, tonight's winner, works in McConveys on the Ormeau Road so if you want some cycling advice just ask for him. Mike is usually hidden away in the workshop and enjoys an excuse to get out.

Thanks again to the timekeepers Peter, Tracy, Ed and Wes. Normally we share the time keeping meaning "most" of us give us a night of training every so often. Hence having people help out like this is great.

It looks like we are in for some interesting "training" this season. Will Neville be able to beat that dogged pensioner McHenry? Will McVeigh be able to keep his nose ahead of Pollock?

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.
