Breffni Wheelers back on the road.
The Cavan based cycling club, Breffni Wheelers, are calling on all memebers and those interested in joining the club to head to The Orchard Bar on Saturday mornings at 10.30am and Sunday mornings at 10.30am. The Orchard has been the starting point for the last number of years and a group generally meet there each weekend. By arrangement the group occasionally start from a different location the details of which will be announced on the website in future.
Throughout the season members participate in the growing number of sportives held around the country, including the an Post Tours of Donegal, Clare, Meath and Waterford. A number of members are intending to participate in the Etap Hibernia in Clare in August. This Etap takes place on closed roads in Clare and is 100 miles or 160 kilometers around the beautiful countryside of Clare. It is a great opportunity to see this part of the country.
Every year so far The Wheelers have organised a Charity Cycle for a local charity. However because of organisational difficulties the Charity Cycle will not take place this year. We hope to organise such an event in 2012.
Membership of the club for 2011 is €40.00 until 31.12.2011, this includes membership to Cycling Ireland (provides insurance cover for cycling in Ireland).
