    Fourteen new riders braved extreme weather conditions for our first beginners ride last Saturday. The rain didn't stop for the entire spin but that didn't prevent them tackling everything in their path - uphill and down - with smiles and enthusiasm. Instruction was proved on tackling various obstacles and Sean showed how to check your bike over before a ride.

    Our destination this week is Kindlestown forest in Co. Wicklow (forest car park, 10am). There's a great loop there which we'll have you flying around in no time. We'll also show you how to repair a puncture - fast. It's not essential to attend all the rides (although we'd recommend it) so even if you missed last week you can still come along.

    Riders under 18 and their parents must read this
