Harbour Estate 30th July

Every week seems to bring a new legend to the party, with the crew able to offer a warm welcome to Fiona McCrystal for her first outing tonight. Fiona misunderstood the concept of a TT, proudly proclaiming that she was just out for a wee spin... needless to say it didn’t take her competitive spirit long to kick in and go full throttle! Welcome to the joyous pain of the time trial!

Vaughan led the posse home tonight in typically blistering fashion, followed home by the Conor’s McGandy and Preshaw - whatever happened to the Preshaw - Pollock rivalry?

Emma used the motivation of having Michelle start ahead of her to take the ladies honours.

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.
