Hi Dee, unfortunately I am going to opt out of the ROB on Saturday. Don't have 140 in the legs. No doubt it will be a phenomenal spin!

ROB UPDATE
Unfortunately as you can see by the weather forecast, its not looking very favourable for our spin in kenmare on Sat.
The commitee have been keeping a close eye on the forecast all week and hoping it would improve.
With regret we are considering postponing saturdays spin. There is yellow weather warning on fri for rain, meaning roads could be flooded. In addition, heavy showers and wind forecasted for saturday morning.
With the safety of our cyclists in mind and knowing how exposed we will be around the beara peninsula, the commitee will review the forecast again tomorrow morning and post our decision by lunchtime at the latest.
If only we could control the weather! 😓

What a mighty turnout for the club spin today. The highest numbers ever I would wager. And a mighty spin too. Thanks to the 140k crew, Francis T, Anthony and thomas H, Mike C, Mick M, Declan M and Pat Hurley (welcome to the club). A pleasure to ride with you all. FYI The eyeries-allihies stretch is as hard as ever😝. Special thanks to Dee, Trish and Annie for putting it all together for us. I know it ain’t easy so well done. Onwards and upwards CCC.   |
