This cycle will be led by an experienced cycle coach and will be leaving from Kingfisher NUIG every Saturday morning for the next few weeks @ 9:00am sharp. The average speed of the group will be leisurely (less than 25km\/hr) and nobody will be left behind. The routes will be varied with an average distance of 30k that will include varying terrain.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">This Saturday spin is ideal for the beginner\/novice cyclist who doesn\u2019t have any experience cycling in groups. We will go through all of the cycling etiquette and techniques associated with group cycling.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">Important: Safety is crucial in group cycling! Make sure your bike is in perfect working order, if in doubt get it checked out. As with all cycling events, helmets are mandatory, No helmet no cycle! Please remove aerobars from the bike. Also bring a spare tube\/pump\/puncture repair kit, a multi-tool, a phone and a small amount of money in your saddle bag. Finally please dress in line with the weather forecast and wear hi-vis where possible.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">*** Meet and Train Cycling***<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">Meet: 9:00 AM Sharp Blackrock<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">\u00b7 Option 1. 100km (Avg Pace: 28-30km\/h).<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">\u00b7 Option 2. 60km (Avg Pace: 28-30km\/h).<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<em class=\"gtc-b-em\">\n<strong class=\"gtc-b-strong\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">*** Turbo Training ***<\/span>\n<\/strong>\n<\/em>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gtc-b-paragraph\">\n<span class=\"gtc-b-text\">In partnership with MBW Moycullen, we have a limited amount of Cycleops Turbo Trainers to bring along to the turbo session for people who are interested in trying it out.
