    Is there many on here from the Cobh/Carrightwohill area that would be interested in getting a group together for the winter on Saturday and Sundays to train for 2011 racing season?

    I suppose starting off around 2.5/3 hrs at 17/18mph average building up to 4/5 hrs at 20/21mph in Febuary.How does that sound?

    Whats with all this MPH? Are you running or cycling?:pac:

    I have had a busy summer and am not as bike fit as I would like to be but I reckon I can rise to that, I'm hitting those averages on short spins.
    Any interest in a mid week spin the weather is cracking till Friday. I wont be around for the next 2/3 weekends but can meet up then for a blast.

    Yep, I'm about 5 'miles' from Carrigtwohill, like I said I may be below your ideal pace but at the mo but sure I'll give it a bouldwhack any way.... nothing like motivation to motivate me.

    Have you raced before?
    There are quite a few, very good cyclists living in the Cobh area.
    But they are a deadly serious crew:eek: Nice enough dudes, but they don't suffer fools galdly:eek:
    So if your bike handling skills are up to scratch, perhaps I can put you in contact with some of them.

    Happy Cycling:)

    All sounds a bit deadly serious to me, might suit Abbeyside1 though....

    I'm cycling 23 years and have raced 20 of those years,so I'd say I'm ok that way,I'd say I know most of the lads your talking about and used to train with them a few winters back but since they joined the new team in Cork they tend to go in there to train instead.I presume its the like of JO'B and MF you were talking about or is there anyone else I don't know about?

    There are a few others, that would be slightly less hardcore.
    One guy is a vet, who rides mostly S3 races
    If you PM me your contact details, I will see if I can hook you up.

    Happy Cycling:)
