Where were you racing Seanie??And how did you like it??

it was a muster development xc race in ballyhoura, great craic came 17th but my fitness was pretty good on the uphills, not so good yet on the singletrack (caught two guys on the very last straight uphill to the finish which was about 30 - 40 feet great sense of achievement

) will definitely be doing a lot more racing from now on, great to get yourself motivated on becoming fitter, guy that came 1st was 9 minutes ahead of me so its time to put in some work

New bike shop is TopBike which is being rolled out around the country in existing TopPart stores.

Main brands are Specialized, KTM, Spiuk & Etxeondo along with the usual other bits & bobs.

Well the one in Tralee is only just ready, so its hard to say anything about it, but from talking to the guys & the owner, they seem determined to be a cut above your normal LBS, only time will tell.

They are also planning on offering the Retul fitting system in a couple of months.
