The Launch of the Curlieu Wheelers Cycling Club


Club member Carmel Regan has been busy over the summer and managed to fit in the preperations for a new bike club with recovery from her injuries in the Boyle duathlon. It is an indication of the growth in popularity of biking to see yet another club develop, we wish the Curlieu Wheelers all the best, no doubt many Sligo Tri members will be competing with, racing against and marshalling for their events in the future. With this in mind the first event they are running takes place in two weeks, all Sligo Tri members are invited -details can be found below or by visiting their website.
