Kindlestown, Wednesday 19th, 6:30

Tuesday, April 18th, 2006

Myself and Geoff and heading down to Kindlestown for a spin on wednesday evening. We’re aiming to be there/starting cycling at 6:30 so anyone else who wants to come along is more than welcome.

That should be plenty of time to allow for a good few laps before darkness sets in.

Saturday 15th - Everybody!

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

hi,
Details for Saturday’s spin are as follows. Meeting at Yellow House at 10am. We’ll be heading up to Three Rock and beyond, but not too far. It will be a nice easy spin so everybody should come! We are aiming to be back at the Yellow House at 1:30 or so. If there are any riders that are 16 or under can you please email me so I can forward a parental consent form to you.

If you are bringing a few friends along make sure they get it filled out as well. This should be filled out and brought on the spin and given to one of the committee members, or whoever is in charge of the spin - It is vital. If you have a jersey payment outstanding can you bring that along too please?

Being the Easter wekend there will be some extra spins. Possibly on Friday, Sunday and Monday. Details will be posted in the next couple of days so keep your eyes open! There was talk of training spins on one or two of these days also, so come along - the first NPS is only a couple of weeks away! Any queries - give me a shout.

MAD Storm Sea Otter

Sea Otter
Well done to MAD racers last weekend in their various endeavours. Our secret weapon, Ryan Sherlock, had a phenomenal race at the Sea Otter Classic in Monterey, California. In spite of recent injuries to right arm and ribs, Ryan fought hard to finish in an incredible 4th place!

Full results are availabe on the Sea Otter website: http://www.seaotterclassic.com/2006/168.htm.

Not wishing to be outdone, 2005 club champion Sean Downey boldly flew the MAD banner at the 4th Interclub, coming in a strong 9th place.

With the NPS looming closer, these results are surely just a taste of the glory to follow…
