Excellent day out, as always, organised by the Kilbehenny Cycling Club . Great route, good company and perfect weather meant everyone enjoyed themselves, despite a few punctures and an earrant bike computer. Well done, KCC! Looking forward to next year already!.

🚨 On June 7, Lael Wilcox will set out to become the fastest person ever to ride around the world by bicycle - regardless of gender.

The American endurance cyclist already holds the women's Guinness World Record for circumnavigating the globe, set in 2024. This time she's chasing the outright record: Mark Beaumont's 2017 mark of 78 days, 14 hours, and 40 minutes.

According to The Radavist, Wilcox will roll out at 4:00 a.m. from Buckingham Fountain in Chicago, aiming to finish before 6:40 p.m. on August 24. The numbers are staggering - roughly 240 miles a day for 78 days or fewer, covering 29,000 km (18,000 miles) across four continents.

For the first time in her ultra-racing career, she'll ride fully supported, aboard a Specialized S-Works Roubaix with a SRAM RED AXS drivetrain.

Cutting nearly 30 days off her own 2024 time is a brutal ask. But if anyone can do it, it might just be Lael.

Sunday's crew out for a very pleasant spin to Dungarvan and back via Newcastle. Some decided to return by The Vee to see the Rhododendron display, which was particularly good this year! Well worth the extra few km.

Come join us! Spin next Sunday leaves Clogheen at 9 am. All welcome.

Cometh the weather, cometh the masses! Good sized gang out today for a sun drenched spin from Ardfinnan to Carrick-on-Suir and back 😎. Great day to be on the bike!

Now that the summer is here, why not dust off the bike and come join us. Leaving Ardfinnan at 9 am next Sunday. All levels welcome!

Thanks to Trevor Cullinan for the video!

Stay safe, everyone!

A lovely morning, so everyone broke out the summer gear. Everything was great all the way to Fethard and the delicious coffee stop at Alla's Patisserie made it even better! But once we hit Cashel on the way home the rain was coming down hard and cold, with a headwind to boot. Oh well, just keep spinning those legs to keep warm and be thankful that it cleared by the time we got back to Ardfinnan. 85km done with a relaxed 25km/hrs average.

Come join us. Those coffee stops make it all worthwhile. 😁 Next week's spin leaves the Green in Ardfinnan at 9 am on Sunday. All welcome.
