Join us at Killarney

18 Apr 2017 Join us at Killarney

Join us this Sunday 23 April at the Killarney race track for a training session from 08h30-09h45 and/or 10h00-11h30. For the small fee of R20 for adults and R10 for kids younger than 12, the track will be available to you. You are welcome to do either one, or both of the sessions.

If you want to join the riders on the track outside the two starting times (08h30 and 10h00), you are welcome to do so – please watch out for approaching riders and keep left at all times.

The Killarney restaurant will be open on Sunday for breakfast, coffee and light meals.

PS: This Sunday’s session is a great training opportunity for next Sunday’s 12 Hours at Killarney, when we challenge you to find out how many laps you can do in 12 hours. You can enter the 12-hour challenge as an individual rider, in a pair or in a team of 4. The 12 Hours at Killarney Challenge will start at 08h00 on Sunday , which means the last few laps will be done in the dark for which you’ll need  good working lights on your bicycle (and extra batteries, just in case).

Your medal for the 12-Hour Challenge will be linked to the number of laps completed, with between 25-39 laps needed for a bronze medal. Forty laps completed will get you a silver medal, while the 10 riders who have completed the most laps, will receive gold medals.

The Killarney restaurant will be open so that you can ‘refuel’ during the day.
