Tuesday 2nd February XC training Spin 7.00 Palmers

Ok..as its a training session heres the route.
Palmers - Leaving at 7.00.
Turning right up the road towards Johnny Foxes through the Devils Elbow and up.
Theres a road then that goes straight along instead of going right to Johhnies.
We're going up this..this loops down by Skirmish and joins the Scalp Road.
Turning left along the Scalp and in to the Scalp.
Up the Scalp.
after the gate its Right straight away towards the fence corner then up left by the fence
all the way to the Tower.
Down the back of the Tower and back out on to the original climb from the gate.
Into the CLub Course
following it as usual till we get to the normal climb to the second section..but going straight on towards Katy
Turn right down to the leafy descent and back up the savage climb
straight on then turning right up to the pylon and left all the way through that savage singletrack coming out and turning left back up to eventually joining the fireroad near the second section
follow the club course all the way to where we exit the final section and turn right and head for the boxing ring
after the boxing ring up the savage climb to Katy Gollagher.
Down Katy and back up the savage climb.
over to the back entrance of the 2nd section and follow the club course as usual
then back over down the Scalp and back to palmers.

Now, its up to you what sections you do or where you join the spin.
I will let you decide if you are able or not.

Would love to, never been up Maulin... but I'll be stuck at work tomorrow to at least 6.00 p.m. The earliest I could make it to Djouce would be around 8.00 p.m...

Excuses already. I bet you were gutted on Saturday when James said he had the part for your brakes.
Ha ha!! Don't know what it is with me and brakes recently. Been having nothing but trouble with the Avids on my white hardtail and the Xtr's on my carbon bike are feckin useless! Not to mention the ones on the Spicy!!
well that was brilliant...even though it was fierce savage at times including the climb of death at the start !!
Not to mention 3 times up the climb of hell in Carrickollogan !!
Steve is the King of The Daves and Rusty is the king of the Fit DHers !!
Going off the top of Katy in the pissing rain on an XC bike is the stuff of legends!!
First time of Katy at night and on the xc bike....i can just never get enough momentum at the feckin start.SAAAAAAVAGE spin allround,, great to see a monster gang out.

Im bleedin banjoed now!!!
Yes great gang out alright, Steve was flying !! Great spin/craic as always !!
Thanks lads,

its amazing the turnouts we're getting on these spins...fair play to everybody tonight...don't be fretting if you took the alternate routes.with Alfie and Damo up the front its going to be ferocious !!
the Mutiny at the bottom of Katy was priceless !! 3 times up that meatgrinder is unreal..
theres 3 steps after forming on it and they caught me out once !
