This Sunday, instead of a Group 1 road spin, there is an introductory session with Ian Cassidy on Sunday morning – meeting at the Papal Cross in Phoenix Park at 8.30am.
In preparation for the mountains in Lanza, Group 2/3 are heading southside up some climbs! Meeting point is Yellow House in Rathfarnham however, for those living on the northside, Trish will be leaving WW in Clontarf at 8.20 and cycling over to Rathfarnharm. Alternatively, you can drive and park in Rathfarnham Village.
Group 2 will be meeting at Yellow House at Rathfarnham at 8.50am for a 9.00am departure. Route (approx 50-60km) up along military road and dropping in to Enniskerry with Bike Lead Trish Eadie
Group 2 will be meeting at Yellow House at Rathfarnham at 8.50am for a 9.00am departure. Route (approx 70-80km) up Military Road and towards Roundwood/Enniskerry with Bike Lead Killian Nolan
Note: If you are heading out on the club spin, please wear some sort of high-vis jacket/gilet to ensure you are visible to all drivers on the road.
Also, from next weekend onwards, for insurance reasons, only signed up members to Piranha will be permitted on the group spins.
** Group 1: 22-24kph
** Group 2: 24 -26kph
** Group 3: 26-28kph
As always, please remember good bike discipline while out on a club spin:
** 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.
