Sunday 24th of Oct Weekly Spin

Well done to all cyclists who enjoyed Sundays Spin (from St. Josephs N.S carpark 9.30am). The beginner group did 35Km some of whom have only been cycling for 5 wks. The advanced group did 65km taking in Ballaghaderreen, Fairymount and Lough Glynn on their travels. It was good to see no one was put off by the bad weather. See everyone on Tuesday evening at 7pm. (from St. Josephs N.S carpark) Hi-vis and front and rear lights compulsory. Please be aware of the rules of the road at all times.

Bike Maintenance Course Reminder:

There are still plenty of places left for the bike maintenance course taking place at the Abbey College, Boyle on Thursdays from 8-9.30. The course is subsidised by Roscommon VEC and costs €50  for 5 weeks. It will be given by our own David Gunning who is a fully qualified City and Guilds bike mechanic. Anyone who has seen David's bike will know that he knows a thing or twenty about keeping a bike in tip top condition!! Come along and don't get stranded on the roadside all fingers and thumbs with a puncture or break down this winter!!!!
