Hi all,
This week’s improver club cycle will leave Westwood at 9:00am on Sunday morning. Pace will be steady, 4/10 with no efforts. We will head out to Malahide via Howth hill and Portmarnock and return the same way. Cycle will be approx 2 hours so people will be home and hosed by 11:30.
Please ensure that your bike is in working order and that your tires are inflated to an appropriate pressure before you leave. This can be done by performing the “M-check” – rear tire, rear derailleur, cassette and quick release / seat post clamp / front derailleur, chainset and pedals / headset and handlebars / front tire and quick release.
Remember to bring spare tubes, multi-tool, pump, mobile phone and money + 2 bottles of water and enough food for the duration of the ride. Aim to eat between 30g-60g of carbs per hour (30g of carbs = 1 banana or a handful of dried apricots).
Weather looks like it will be ok on Sunday morning but remember to bring a rainproof in case of any downpours.
All cyclists must have a valid TI licence and a helmet to participate. No TI licence or helmet, no cycle.
Please post up if you plan on coming.
Thanks!
Anthony
