National Trails Day 2009

National Trails Day is a celebration of Ireland’s wonderful variety of trails and a chance for everyone to enjoy some of our most beautiful countryside, forests, mountains and lakes. The date for this years event is  Sunday 4th October 2009.

Similar to last year, MAD will be hosting a guided ride around the trails in Ballinastoe to mark the occasion. This spin will be appropriate for anyone – we’ll split into various groups depending on ability.

The mountainbiking session will start at 10am and finish at approx 1/2pm.

Please ensure you arrive in good time, that you have a bike helmet (no exceptions to this) and make sure your mtb is in full working order.

People should also bring a bicycle pump and spare tube, a drink and a small snack (eg; muesli bar etc..). Make sure to bring a rain jacket, just in case.

Directions to Ballinastoe are on the Coillte Outdoors website
