Spins this week: The return of Nigel!!
18
This week sees the return of Nigel (above sporting the latest in uber-chic Belgian hairstyles) after a long absence from biking so there’s going to be a spin on Sunday in his honour.
The venue will be a riotous rip ’round the Sugarloaf.
Meeting time/location is Kindlestown at 10am (for a few warm-up laps) and heading from there.
In other spin news, Shane Lavelle is running a lively gallop around the Leadmines on Thurs night-meeting at Palmers Pub in Kilternan at 7.00/7.15pm.
Plan is to do the course three or so times at a moderate pace.
Lights and usual kit essential. contact Shane at: 0863195936
Also on Thursday night The Power is going to be brought-on with a lactic-acid boiler of a spin around Ballinastoe with Ireland’s Olympic XC (very) hopefuls Tom and Fergal.
Meet at the Ballinastoe car park at 7:30pm.
Pace will be blistering and will be excellent training for the K-Capital Cup which is inching ever-closer!
No spins are arranged for Saturday as this is an official club trailbuilding day and it’d be great to see people out helping-remember this is a great way to familiarise yourself with trails that you’d never find on your own!
Any other spin info let me know and I’ll update this post.
