Weekend Happenings


It looks like things have been a bit quiet in the club for the last few weeks, with many of us away, cycling in exotic locations. However, there are a couple of rides planned for this weekend which you should know about.

Saturday Club Ride
Taking place at Leadmines. Meet at the Barnaslingan car park at 10am. As usual, if you’re driving, park at Palmers pub and ride up the hill. This will suit regular riders and anyone who’s attended our recent beginners rides who want to keep it going.

Dr. Rob’s Introduction to Mountainbiking
Real life doctor and closet MAD member Rob Higgins of UCD cycling club is leading a beginners-level ride around Kilmashogue and Three Rock. All are welcome. Meet either at UCD Sports Centre before 10.30 or at the car park at the end of Kilmashogue Lane at about 11.15.

We hope to resume normal service shortly, with regular Saturday and Sunday rides (as soon as everyone is back, and the pains in my legs go away). It’s also time to get your night lights charged (or bought) since the night-riding season has well and truly begun.

Have a great weekend.

    cracker of a video Morgan!
    Hopefully there will be some of that action going on during the Saturday spins!
    I’ll probably be doing marathon xc training tomorrow between 3 rock and Leadmines, after my mega-munch fest in Italy last week I sure need as much as possible, so if I see any good splattery I’ll be sure to report back!

    Myself, John H and Karl are heading due south from 3Rock tomorow if anyone wants to join in. Might aim for Djouce or Powerscourt, depending on the heads and legs. Kinda need some training for the marathons!

    A bad weekend. Yesterday, my get up and go had got up and gone. Today, so did my chain. Lesson learned, bits ordered from CRC. Better today than next weekend!
