Beginners Course Round 3
Crossing the midway mark with much gusto, this weeks Beginner Course will take place in the Leadmines off the Enniskerry Road.
Directions here
We strongly advise parking at Palmers Pub and cycling out (10mins max), parking is very limited at Barnasligan Lane and the area gets easily congested with a few cars, which annoys the locals.
Even better still, you could cycle out there and leave the car at home….
We’ll meet at Barnasligan Car Park at 10am (rain, hail, sun or even shine!) and roll on from there, for about 2 hours.
As usual, you’ll require a helmet, rainjacket, food, water, spare tube, pump and tool.
If you’re under 16 years of age, you’ll need a parent to sign this form.
We haven’t yet decided what the TechTalk will cover, so we’re very open to canvassing! Post a comment or send an email if you know of anything that you’d like covered. So far we’ve showed you how to set up your bike and fix a puncture.
As always, queries can be directed to committee@madmtb.com or a direct reply to this post.
See you all Saturday,
Sean

Can EVERYONE park at Palmers Golden Ball pub, don’t drive-up to the Leadmines, not very safe for cars up there and very limited parking space.
It’s only a short spin up from the pub and an ideal warm up.
Thanks
