Women
Michelle Geoghegan
Over the last few years we have seen a huge increase in the number of female cyclists joining Orwell Wheelers. Whether you are just beginning or are an experienced racer, you will find women of similar ability in our club. Our Sunday spins are mixed, but cater to different levels of fitness.
For a trial period, the Ladies spins will be run with the Touring Group who are a very friendly bunch with lots of good cycling advice and assistance on hand. All levels from complete novices are welcome and nobody will be left behind- spins are every Saturday at 9.30am from Joe Daly Cycles in Dundrum.
Mixed Sunday spins of all levels leave Joe Daly's Cycles, Dundrum on Sundays at 9.30am sharp. Please see the website for etiquette and technique and ensure that you bring warm clothing, drink, snack, money for coffee stop, spare tube, levers and pump. Ensure that your bike is in good working order (with 80-100psi in the tires) and that you have a properly fitting helmet. Don't worry if you're not experienced riding in a bunch, you'll soon pick it up!
If you're interested in training with a view to racing in 2010, we are hoping to put a training group together for an Orwell team and there's also the possibility of an Orwell Ladies Novice Racing League. Any other suggestions for training and events welcomed!
