There is a club run heading to Tollymore Forest Park from the back car park, Friday morning 9am. Race tyres are not recommended.
Bring sandwiches etc.
(The back car park is the one just off the Bryansford Road with the high walls.)
See you there.

Bring the biggest grippiest tyres you've got and if you have knee pads wear them! The trails we'll be riding are steep, rocky, rooty and very technical.
Younger riders are welcome too but will not be riding the same trails as the adults.

I can't make this one but Mark/Robbie/Claire will have; - mapped the route with 6 fig grid refs, bearings, rescue points etc. - recced the route (plus be there before everyone else & ridden it again on Friday am) - on Friday in the car park check you all have appropriate kit, 'M' check your bike, carry out a bike fit, check you aren't pissed, then get you to sign a disclaimer - once you get going they'll check you can brake, corner, ascend & descent with a degree of common sense (track stands optional) -then hopefully you'll all get a good beasting up some lung busting fireroad climbs before hangin on with all you've got barrelling down some fast, rocky, rooty trails (don't worry - there's chicken runs at all the drops & jumps & if you have a mechanical, they'll fix it & if you have a fall & hurt your arm, they can turn your jersey into a sling  ) Enjoy!  |
