Hey, i've just had a look at the site, its pretty cool, and me and my mate are interested in giving the sport a go, we both have a mountain bike so what the hell, was wondering if any members of the club are interested in going on a ride in the wicklow/dublin mountains, we figured you lot would know the best trails to take, so if anyones interested please reply as soon as possible, thanks!:)

Come on 3rock on Sunday, there's a nice race going on :)

We had beginners spins just a couple of months ago, there may be another series in the autumn - keep an eye on the forum.

Club membership isn't really "closed", it's just that we're not in a position to cater to complete beginners at the moment since we're occupied with organising the NPS and King of Three Rock events. When they're both out of the way we'll look into organising something for the beginners.

For riders with a bit of experience there are always spins happening if you're interesting in joining up.
