Djouce Spin

Hey John,

Is this spin open to everyone or just club members? I am fairly new to the mountain biking and was looking to do some other trails than just Ballinastoe and 3 Rock, as I don’t know any of the trails around Djouce it would be the job to tag along, however as my experience is only the two Coillte trails at my own pace I would be worried about holding you up.
Sure you can let me know

Cheers
Yes of course you're welcome along, there'll be bail-out places along the way just let me know when you've had enough.
Well that was a great spin - really enjoyed it - wet and slippery in places but I'll get the hang of the SPD things eventually.

Good group out today - Mick I hope the leg is OK, looked nasty, did it need stitches?

Quote of the day - me to John:

"Max is going real fast today, what should I do to slow him down?"

John:

"Just tell him to do what you do !!"
Well, that was a fairly eventful one for me anyways. That was a great spin until it went wrong for me, particularly Gran Canaria - and especially that head-the-ball route that you went at the end of the fast section John.
Thanks a million for pointing me in the direction of the VHI clinic in Dundrum, I'd be sitting like a spare tool in A&E all day otherwise. And there's worse ways of spending the afternoon than getting loads of attention from some cute nurses.
The bad news - quite a few stiches and absolutely no cycling (neither mountain or road) or sea swimming for the next ten days. In the last year the longest I've gone without either is two days. So "b0llocks" is all i can say to that.
If any one is bored and has already eaten, here's a link to a pic of the wound, which is fairly cool looking if I do so say myself.
Hope the rest of the spin went well lads.
aagh! what an ugly photo!!
bad luck - jeez 10 days you'll be going crazy still, could've been worse i suppose.
glad to hear they tidied you up in dundrum clinic.

Sorry Adrian it was a very mean thing to say - but Max is really flying isn't he - seems to be getting quicker by the day!
Well done everyone for getting round a really brilliant spin (apart from the incident!) in the slippyness and sunshine.
get well soon Mick.
