Saturday January 21 The early bird catches the worm! (or just gets home earlier).
Brendan Houlihan & Shane O’Brien left Kilmallock at 8.00am for a 55k spin over the mountains and home. The clock was ticking! Out cycling at 9.30am were Sean Burchill, Jerry Ryan, Jonathan Moloney, Marie Hartnett and Louise Broughton. Well done everyone.
Sunday January 22
We had a super turnout for last Sunday’s cycle with twenty four club members raring to go at 8.30am. Three groups were assembled, taking care of everyone’s training ambitions. With lights still on we headed for Bruff, Ballyneety, Raheen, Patrickswell, Adare, Croom, Athlacca, Bruree, Charleville and home. While it was windy, the rain stayed away and we were even treated to some sunshine as the morning progressed. As DC might say, “It was sweet as a nut”. Club members in action were Willie & Mary McCarthy, Ber & Paul Gammell, Jan & Tadhg Murphy ,Stephen Heihr, Paul Finn, Mike Gammell, Brendan Daly, Michelle Gammell, Mike Sexton, Martin Lake, Donal Kelly, Doll Reale, Ger Finn, Jerry Ryan, Sean Burchill, John Carey, Brendan Houlihan, Daithi Creedon, Stephen Finn, Shane O’Brien and new recruit Mike Meade. Great stuff boys and girls.
New members are always welcome, bring abike, helmet and a smile and you’re in. Obviously a good smattering of Lycra would be advisable too, we wouldn’t want you getting arrested. We have an easy paced cycle at 9.30 every Saturday morning. Our main weekly cycle every Sunday morning at 8.30. Midweek we have our “Wednesday Night Light Cycle” at 6.30pm, as the name suggests cyclists need a good front and back light and hi-vis clothing. The route is around the perimeter of the town and will benefit in part from street lighting. All cycles start from the carpark beside Kilmallock Cycles. Keep an eye on the club website www.southsidewheelywheelers.com for news.
