YOU MUST WEAR A CYCLING HELMET TO JOIN THE SPIN

Distances Between 70 and 80 kilometres with a tea stop at about 50 kilometres. Sunday spins are decided on Saturday and communicated to all members via text.

Members The club has members of both sexes in all age categories from late teens and upwards. Training groups are usually between 10 and 20.
Routes Flat to Hilly ... Undulating

NEWCOMERS
Newcomers are welcome to join the club spin every Saturday. An experienced member will show novice riders the ropes about riding in groups, cycling etiquette, getting to know club members in their areas and also stay with them if the pace is too hot. Those wishing to come out should have a good level of fitness and should be capable of completing 40 kilometres solo. A road bike is also necessary.
You do not have to join the club as a member straight away. You can participate in up to 3 spins before deciding whether you want to become a member.

Please call/text/email the Club Secretary if you plan on coming out to ensure the session will be taking place. Check website for details too. (Ciaran Farrell 087 2588529) dwccsecretary@gmail.com



Some general advice for group spins like these:

Have a racing bike (road bike)
Have spare tubes/pump on the bike
Have a couple of bottles of water / energy drink
Have warm/wet gear on if the weather isn't the best.
Have a mudguard on if it's wet- as a courtesy to the cyclist behind rather than to save yourself
Don't have tri-bars on, they are dangerous in a spill
Have 5 Euro for a coffee-stop
Bring your mobile, put it in a ziploc type bag
Always wear your helmet

I know that feeling! Well done Wesley.

Thx Paul - the real mechanical difficulty was in the legs - they wouldn't pump fast enough Wink

Well done Wez in the 2-day at the weekend. Would have been a contender except for a TT mechanical difficulty.

Typical us Wheelers upsetting The Boyne Valley Manor House security systems, mind you swords did it too!

Enjoyed the BotB run. Had some delusion it might be the de-scheduled club randonnee. The political theory discussion was most illuminating; at 50km/h downhill I hear "in his seminal 1994 paper...

Not sure Rory but hoping to find out tomorrow. Maybe there will be a repeat of 1690, on bikes.

Sunday club cycle is "Battle of Boyne" route, what is that?

03/09/2010 01:58
Another few years and the majority of CI members should be ready for the terminator. Who will ride the championships then?

02/09/2010 22:03
Consider yourself lucky Lenny, remember the film Logan's Run, where ya got bumped off when ya reached 30! At least CI allow you another 10 years before you are marked for termination.

02/09/2010 20:26
Mr F that is a load of BS and there we are training like mad things for this our end of season classic. Lets do it.

02/09/2010 12:29
No vets welcome in Waterford, Wes. You are on your own!

There's a new open race on the calendar for this Thurs in Mondello - looks like fun.
