Bike Week Family in Enniscorthy Sun 22nd June

[frankb]

Folks
I am organising a family event as part of Bike Week. Details below. It would be great if some of you and your children could support this event. It will be marshalled and there will be a Garda presence for this event. I have four marshals but need another 6, so if someone had the time, i would greatly appreciate it. Marshalling should take no more than and hour.

Can't make this. If anyone wants to borrow my (7) bike trailer give me a shout. I also have the club bike if anyone wants it.

Thanks Frank for organising a great morning out for familes. Kids had a great time and are delighted with themselves. Great to see so many of our own members out marshalling and encouraging the next generation despite busy schedules, well done all

Just want to say thanks to the families of R795 that supported this event and recognise that others were committed to ardattin running event among other events. Thanks to all the 795ers who marshalled, it can't happen without marshals and as David said, none of them have much free time at the moment. Big thanks to Jarlath and his work colleagues for turning out in such numbers to provide Garda support along with the lads in civil defence - lots of sirens which added to the occasion for the kids. Thanks to Shaughs and Phil Murphy of Wexford tri for leading the two groups and Joe Fortune from Slaney cycling for marshaling also.
