check out the video on you tube of the crash. crowd getting involved abusing the marshall

Just watched the video. Why didnt the marshal want the bike moved?

On a side note I dont think spectators should get involved like that

Cant seem to find it now. The poster was getting some abuse in the comments for putting it up so maybe they removed it

Richard tea · 22-06-2015 12:20pm

Yeah its taken down now

In fairness the event yesterday was very under staffed, I was just after kells corner doing flags as they were stuck and the lad with me had the hole back stretch to marshal on his own (about half a mile) which was a nightmare as the crowd kept standing and falling off the small bank. All the while the orange jump suit brigade (I counted 9) sat at kells corner so they could all have the craic and see the bikes doing burn outs. They had some girl doing un-official flag marshal as the next flag back from me could not see me around the corner. Most of the time I put up the yellow flags and the red they were too busy yapping to see it. I had to jump and wave vertical to alert the marshal around the corner ffs!

Not ideal but they need to step it up, dont get me wrong I am aware that these people donate their time and effort for free to run the event and th even would not be able to run without them. But you need to have experienced an experienced marshals around too.

Glad the event is back and hope it goes from strength to strenghth.

Lads, if ye are looking for a spin on Sunday. There's a poker run on in Slane, sign on between half 10 to 12pm. This is for Little Lilly Coogan aged 9 who has to travel to England for life saving opps.

Hopefully see you there.

No...not at all alive and kicking in some shape or form. Some Sundays its not possible like this weekend the rad races are on same as last weekend its road race season.

But post up that you are looking for a spin and see whats what.

Bulin · 10-07-2015 8:31pm

Yea good idea but I am a Lil bit my curious if anyone uses Facebook and arranges through that. Been on the road a few months and I have not used it to enjoy myself enjoy a spin. I think I need to bit the bullet lol
Using this site to contact fellow bikers it's quiet hard to be personal

True,Of course its hard to meet people but only if you dont make an effort and actually go out. But when you go out a few times and you get to know lads you will get contact details etc. all the lads I go out with over the last 4 yrs I have met from biking spins. The craic is mental to say the least...you will meet lads on all different machines, all with different abilities and it does not matter a **** (to me anyway) if you are fast or slow you never left behind.

Lads on here will tell you, anyone who ever went out with us (I mean me personally) never got lost or left behind. Unless they are still lost now and have not been found!!!!

You've got to get out on a spin Bulin, while bikes are a great way to commute, they were made to be fun! You'll learn a lot on a sunday spin too.

Once you go out on a spin you'll get to know everyone a bit better, it can be a bit tough to go out on that initial spin but we were all the new guy at some stage and we kept coming back.
