Hi All,
We have had a number of requests and questions recently about fast spins.
The club has had fast spin groups in the past but they have not been consistent and once they become less regular they tend to disappear. Instead of running them like the traditional club spin we are opting for a new approach.
We will have a whatsapp group for those interested where they can post up about spins on an ad-hok basis, when it suits and in a less formal way.
The pace on the spins will be steady and constant and usually in the realm of 25-30km/h over the course of 3+ hours. Everyone in this group should be efficient at cycling in a group, self-sufficient in fixing the usual road side issues, and be more than comfortable at the above mentioned pace. We also expect that these spins will generally be smaller and so will require more effort to maintain pace.
All riders considering joining this group are expected to have attended the intermediate Sunday spins and feel more than comfortable on them.
There are plenty of men and women in the club at this level who often train alone or in small groups. This Group is to give all these people a wider base of training partners when they fancy some company on a spin.
All interested should email training@belparktri.ie to be added. Also if you have any questions please contact myself mens.captain@belparktri.ie or Conal at training@belparktri.ie.
