    And also thinking UCD sports centre could be a possible set off point, if heading on spin out down N11 way …. has the parking / toilet / coffee criteria too.

    Yellow House is good for me for Wicklow spins. And there is a car park just beside it which is free on Sundays.

    Phoenix Park good for me too, if heading out towards west of the city.

    Happy to travel to other locations – best if they have nearby car park and some toilet / coffee facilities as well.

    Cheers – John S

    I got in ok earlier. Had some of the password issues at start – but all worked fine 10 or 15 mins later.

    Hi Rachel

    I got a Tacx Flow Ergo turbo trainer about 5 years ago, and its still going strong.

    Bought it in Wheelworx at the time, but am sure you’ll get it in other shops too.

    For me, key thing to make sure is that your turbo trainer has good range of resistance settings, doesn’t make too much noise and has a way to measure Cadence (some of the entry-level models may not have this).

    Just in case anyone new to club doesn’t know all acronyms yet … WWT = “warm weather training”, a training week away for club members in a warm place early in the season

    Great chance to get a focused week of training (with coaches) across swim/bike/run and enjoy the sun at the same time.

    Yes – subsidy of €15 from club is still in place – so special Piranha member price will be €60

    We have recently purchased a club kayak for support on open water swim sessions. Sinead McB is the “minder”. Maybe this can help ? John S
