This Spin will suit Club members or potential members from last Sunday.
We will be going from the Gala Shop,
Up by the Blue light following a similiar route to last Sunday but heading down the Wicklow way ( avoiding that walk) and on to the Glencullen road.
people can bail from here and head back on the road if they like
Then up to prince Willies and down Curltestown and back up the dream Mile and Back to Glencullen.
If we are lucky we should be back at the cars by 1.00
Bear in mind that this is a lengthy spin but we will be waiting for people and encouraging
them.

Hey Richie - don't think I've any work for Saturday - will I be able for this? Got a good deal on a hard-tail and looking forward to taking it on a decent spin!
I was up there this evening and there is a good 1.5 to 2.5 feet of snow everywhere. Virtually impossible to ride unless you are riding in the tracks of the sleders and boarders or where the jeeps have been before its just way too deep.
The only tracks rideable up there are where there has been a lot of traffic. If you go out of the ruts from the jeeps you stop dead. I didnt make it up as far as the wocas so I dont know but I reckon it would be almost impossible.
Sigh ...
there were those in Coronation Street land who said, we couldn't do Mount Carricobarney..and we did..
They said the wibbily wobbily beasties of Impossible lane would get us, but we forged on regardless..
I will be at the Shop at 10.00 many other will be there and we are going to ride off the edge of the world as usual MR Sham !! we may not get to the Woccas but we will die trying !!
