I hope all of you have had a nice break, even with the poor weather. Time marches by and it is now less than four weeks to the Hilly 125 & Mourne Sportive, on Sunday 12th August.

With that in mind we would like to encourage as many people as possible to join in the Saturday and Sunday morning rides.

From this Sunday the start time in Dromara will go back to 10am as this seems to suit more, but there is a Charity Cycle for the NSPCC, starting off from Larne Leisure Centre with 40 or 70 mile distances.

This would be a good opportunity to show the club colours.

Our mtb race will hopefully be held on Sunday 9th September at Tievnadarragh Forest, if I can get a licence by then, just £170 for the forest service!.

Just to remind you that I have ordered new clothing, jerseys. shorts, men's and women's and children and also winter jackets.

This weeks race has been moved until Thursday 15th August as it will be sponsored by The Harry Ferguson Trust, who are supplied a trophy.

This Thursday 19th of July well will be trying a new road, Ballynahinch to Crossgar  a 10 mile tt.

so please come along and give us your support
