Timekeepers Conor x2 

Cold blustery evening at Temple and not a disc or aero lid in sight.
Things were tight at the top of the male leaderboard with less than 20 secs separating the top 3.
The first time we have had a podium of Emma's this year.
Frank Sharkey paid homage to the true nature of the athletes tt by riding a vintage frame complete with downtube shifters.
Navigational error of the evening  went to Chris McKeown as he did take the left coming into Sainftfield, unfortunately that left was the Middle road.

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.
