Southside Wheely Wheelers Cycling Club cyclists met for the weekly
Wednesday Night Light cycle last Wednesday evening at 6.30pm in the
car park next to Kilmallock Cycles. It was a very wet evening and club
cyclists would be forgiven for staying home beside the open fire, but
not our club cyclists who braved the elements, wheely well done to
Declan McCarthy, Robert Shanahan, Jimmy McCarthy, Brian McCarthy,
Edmond O’Reilly, Jerry Reidy, Gerry Ryan, Harry Mullane, Paul Gammell,
Mike Curtin and Sean Burchill. Saturday cycling continued last
Saturday and is a great opportunity for new cyclists and club cyclists
alike to get more steady kilometres in their legs and get fit and
healthy. Out cycling were Sean Burchill, Gerry Ryan, Robert Shanahan,
Shane Gubbins and Mark O’Shea. Sunday cycling started last Sunday 21
October at 8.30am and cyclists met at the usual meeting place in the
car park next to Kilmallock Cycles. Sunday was a perfect day for
cycling with the help of some beautiful sunshine and cycling friendly
dry conditions. The group cycled off at a controlled pace and then
divided in to two groups to complete a 60k and 90k cycle. Out enjoying
the cycle were Ger Finn, Eugene Manton, Donal Kelly, Edmond O’Reilly,
John Crowley, Pat O Donnell, Martin Lake and Paul Gammell. Southside
Wheely Wheelers Cycling Club cyclists also cycled in the
Newtownshandrum Fun Cycle of 60k and 90k. This was a great day of
cycling and wheely well done to all who cycled. Great to see so many
club cyclists out enjoying the bike and supporting local cycling
events. Southside Wheely Wheelers would like to wish Mary McCarthy and
Ber Gammell the best of luck as they take on a challenge of a life
time, the Dublin City Marathon on October 29th. Mary and Ber have
trained for this since January. They are doing this to raise funds for
a charity from Bruff called Cliona Ring Foundation. Our club is very
proud of you both because we know how hard you train and never give
up. Another one off the bucket list.Training spins continue every
Saturday and Sunday but on Bank holiday weekends we take a break but
I’m sure some will turn up Saturday and Sunday for spin. Keep an eye
on our website http://www.southsidewheelywheelers.com and our club face book
page.
