Club Notes

It was a bitterly cold start to the weekend spins on Saturday morning and conditions were not the best for cycling but a few hardy souls bravely ventured out regardless and took part in the KBS Toy Appeal charity cycle which departed from Dromineer. They enjoyed a warming cup of coffee before setting out, and 25 people braved the conditions for this spin on the morning which everyone enjoyed completing.

On Sunday morning the numbers were fairly depleted having had the club Christmas party the night before which took its toll on some… 😉 There were five dedicated people who turned up on the morning and completed the proposed route, so fair play guys and gal!!

Thatched Cottage, Ballycommon

We enjoyed a great night for our annual Christmas Dinner and prize-giving on Saturday evening and we have to thank the Thatched Cottage, Ballycommon for a fabulous meal and kind hospitality as usual. There certainly was nobody hungry afterwards! It was great that so many members made it out on the night and everyone enjoyed themselves immensely.
