Fair play PJ for organising
Won't be able to go this week as away, and probably gonna give Bray Aqua a shot on the 12th June, but other than that hope to make most of them

Good selection of evenings so lots should be able to make some of these events, which are as much social as anything else. Lots of thought put into this by PJ as usual, so honour it by taking part when ye can

The first bike TT this Wednesday can be pushed out to 6:30 pm if that suits better.
But as its self timed I suppose you could start a bit later.
Later TT's can be held later as the evenings get brighter.

The run times are set as their before kids running.
But it depends on your predicted run time , we must be off track at 7 pm latest.


So who's going this Wednesday ?
6:30 pm top of Clonegal.

Great idea, but bit too far to travel for us. Anybody north of bunclody fancy meeting up closer to home, record the times that way and then post them up?
