Killynure 14th August

Conor McGandy put in a super effort with a great time of 20:30 followed by Glen on 22:55. However, as good as they were, the real action was taking place just behind - could Emma finally pip Desi? That was the big question.

In short, she did... but she took her eyes of Peter who steamed past like a stealth bomber to take them both and take the third podium position. Emma, however, was not too despondent, as she was very happy to get the better of Desi. Mark was only a few seconds behind Desi, so there is the making of some very healthy competition among this group!

Conor McGandy - 20:30
Glen Pollock - 22:55
Peter McGuckin - 24:14
Emma Kerr - 24:32
Desi McHenry - 25:03
Mark Gormley: 25:23
Gary Hazlett: 27:21

Sean and Conor P shared the marshalling duties this week.

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.
