New club Kit
With good attendance on the night and with a vote for the new club jersey everyone got a chance to choose their favourite. Thanks to everyone who submitted a design we appreciate the time and effort that people took to come up with their draft designs and with over 15 different designs there were lots to choose from. The new club kit won the vote by a large majority receiving over half the votes. We will have pictures of the new design once it has been submitted and passed by Cycling Ireland. We will receive some more sample jerseys so everyone can get their correct fit before ordering. Keep a look out on the blog or facebook we will post a venue and date where you can try on the samples.

Innisfree Wheelers Xmas Charity Cycle
Innisfree Wheelers will stage their Annual Christmas Spin in aid of charity this year on Sunday 11th December. This year the Innisfree Wheelers have joined with the Sligo Lions Club in order to stage their event. Sligo Lions club organise over 200 Christmas food hampers each year which are distributed by St.Vincent de Paul and Sligo social services in Sligo town and county.The Charity Cycle is open to all cyclists who are capable of cycling 40km and they will use the soon to be known "The Lough Gill Cycle Loop"as their route for the cycle. For those who are not familiar with it the route is from Sligo I.T to Dromahair and back to Sligo via Dooney Rock. Hopefully the weather will be in favour for all the cyclists taking part as it can be slightly unpredictable at this time of year.
Registration for the event will take place from 9.00am on the morning of the event at Sligo I.T. Sports Complex with cyclists taking to the road at 10.00am.
Entry Fee will be €10 with all proceeds going to the Sligo Lions Club Appeal.
Christmas Refreshments will be served after the cycle in Connolly's Bar. The Innisfree Wheelers would like to encourage all levels of cyclists from the various clubs to come along and join them.
