Hello All,
Numbers may be low tomorrow due to Belfast – but for those who would like to join a group – here are two options – both from the Yellow House at 9.00am.
Groups 1/2 meeting at The Yellow House at 8.50am for an 9.00am departure.
Group 3 – meeting at The yellow House at 8.50am for an 9.00am departure
Group 1/2 – 60Km, 1,099 climb – Sally Gap (via look-out), Roundwood and Enniskerry – Self-Lead – Route HERE . I can assist with the directions before the group leaves.
Group 3 – 80Km – 1,500 climb – Sally Gap (via Ballinascorney), Roundwood, Enniskery – Bernard as Bike Lead HERE
Please remember good bike discipline:
** There is one cycle lead – and that person is responsible for the route.
** Tight two by two groups, with regular up-and-overs and with a single-file transition are the hallmarks of a disciplined cycle group. No “half wheeling”!
** Each group has a target average speed – this should be maintained. Surges in speed (lead from the front) leads to a dragging-out of the group and members get left behind.
** Traffic lights must be obeyed – pedestrian and traffic!
** Groups should not break-up on the flat. If they do, then they should re-group as soon as reasonably practicable.
Have a great cycle.
Bernard
