Saturday Spin

Peter McGowan, Gillian Power, Billy Harris, John Busher, Larry McDonald, Johnny Fortune, Joe Fortune, Murry Mc Donald and special guest Brian McDermott from Orwell Wheelers all rolled out of Aldi on a surprisingly cold Saturday Morning heading for Ballycarney.

From there we turned for Kiltealy and on for Mount Leinster. The climb was certainly easier than last week as can be seen from the smiles as we crested the summit. Paul Bolger joined us at the Nine Stones.

We paused briefly for a group photo before a very fast descent to Bunclody. The racing guys (Billy and John) together with Brian and Larry seemed to be struggling with the blistering pace and headed home. The rest of the Bravehearts headed on to Tullow for a really good coffee stop in Flynn’s.

From Tullow we headed for Shillelagh, Carnew and on to Camolin over Sliabh Bui and Home via Ferns.

The Spin was 126 hard kilometres in total, a really enjoyable day out. Thanks to all for turning up.
