Some of our club members were out on Sunday taking part in Lap the Lough for Rod.

A great turnout from the local cycling community to remember Rodney and support a worthy cause.

Well done to everyone involved, and thanks to Harps Cycling Club for organising.

🚴 Old Bleach in Bormio! 🇮🇹

A few of the lads recently headed to Bormio for some cycling in the spectacular Italian Alps. 🏔️

Plenty of climbing, stunning scenery and no doubt, a fair bit of suffering along the way!

Nice to see the Old Bleach colours making their way over to the Alps.

Some memories from the trip... 🚴🇮🇹

Well done to Mark, Mick and Ryan, who took on the Innishowen 100 Sportive at the weekend. 💪

A tough day in the saddle, but a brilliant achievement to get it done and great to see the Old Bleach colours out on the road.

Well done lads! 👏🚴

And a big thanks to Foyle Cycling Club for organising the event. 👏

**New kit drop🔥**

Here's a first look at the new Old Bleach club kit.

Inspired by classic 1970s cycling jerseys, the aim was to create something simple, retro and instantly recognisable, while keeping our club colours at the heart of the design.

A special mention to club member Gareth, who along with Pactimo, helped bring the design to life.

Now, let's see it out on the road. 🚴

🏆 Podium and a huge new PB for Ryan Burke! 🥉

Massive congratulations to our very own Ryan Burke on a spectacular 3rd place podium finish at the grueling Donegal Ultra 555 over the weekend! 🚴‍♂️💨
Conquering the rugged Donegal coastline means tackling a massive 345 miles with over 20,600 feet of climbing. Ryan had to battle tough, wet conditions and strong winds, but he absolutely smashed the course and obliterated his record from last year. 🌧️💨
📈 The Stats:
This year: 22h 54m (1h 56m faster!) ⏱️
Last year: 24h 50m

A monumental effort like this takes a stellar team. A huge shoutout to his incredible support crew, BigAl's Bikes and Michael Hegarty, for keeping him fueled, focused, and rolling smoothly through the rain and gusts day and night! 🛠️🍌

A special thanks to the organisers for another superb event

Ryan, the entire club is immensely proud of you. You have truly put Old Bleach CC on the ultra-endurance map!
