Thanks to Niall and Liam for giving me my first taste of cycling up to the 9 stones this morning, great to have it under my belt! Not to keen on the old detour, funny how them road signs are always right, lol.

ye, great spin Dina, liam would make a crap tour guide. just a note of caution to anyone taking a spin over the nine stones from the bunclody side, the cattle grid on the kiltealy side as you descend is missing two bars and its lethal if you hit it at any speed, the road warning comes way too late.
ps. we'll do the Carrabui gap (yes its spelled wrong) in the next few weeks then your ready for any challange

Well impressed lads,might give that a go sometime if i can be guarenteed a tow like last thursday evening

dena don't mind those softchaps. come out with the mountain bikers some day and we'll bring you up to the transmitter

I will haul ass up that mountain if you can airlift me down, getting up to 52km/ph on the flat road was scary enough, i had a cramp in my hands from pulling the brakes for the entire time. Too scary

here's some inspiration for ya - cancellara chasing back the peloton after having a puncture last year in the TdeF. go to aroun 4mins on the vid for the real action

jnever mind those mt bikers Dina...cancellera didnt have to contend with pot holes the size of craters and cattle grids with no grid, and we still got up to 58klm.......to be honest, me nerves were shot....

ha, there was me thinking i was just being a big girl
