With your help I'm proposing to run a Bikefest in Aherlow on Easter Sunday followed by a Benefit Dance
(details below)and
if there is enough interest because Monday is a Bank Holiday ye can all stay over in the lodges.

There will be two groups
to choose from, a road spin and trail riding (trail bikes to be road legal), keep me posted on this thread if yer
interested in joining us so we'll have an idea of numbers.

We'll be meeting at the Aherlow house Hotel at 10:30 on Easter Sunday, full tanks and empty bladders please...:D

If yer interested in the Overnight let me know on this thread and I can reserve the lodges, the cost of which ye can sort out
between ye.

Anyone interested in attending either of the spins need only "donate" €20 to the fund.:thumb
This not only entitles you to join us at the Benefit Dance, but you get trailride/roadspin too.

Are talking big or small trail bikes?

Little bit too technical for the big bikes Ger, but yet self and Fintan will have no bother on the smaller bikes. Just givin my DRz an overdue oil change.

Can't wait for this.....:JB
 
Well done Mcivor, that was really good, fast, free flowing, nicely technical and MEGA fun !


I took a few snaps and a couple of Videos but most of the time I was too busy enjoying myself to be bothered with the
camera, fantastic day thanks Laaaaad.:clap
