Sunday Cycle  30th March 2014

About 20 cyclists this week, left the rec sharp at about 9am (ish).

The group increased in size as we sped along our way, picking up cyclists en-route.  This happening reminded me of the joke about the rabbit running race.  There was 8 heats of 10 rabbits each,  with the top two in each heat progressing through to the quarter-finals, then the semis and then the final.  After the heats were finished there was 16 rabbits through to the play-offs.   Somebody counted and there was 16 rabbits in the quarter-finals,  12 rabbits in the semi-finals and 33 rabbits in the final  (boom boom).

The route this week was Tobermore, Magherafelt, Ballyronan, Newbridge, Bellaghy, Portglenone, Kilrea, Garvagh, Swatragh and back to Maghera – a total of about 50 miles.

Well done to all.

NB, next week’s Sunday cycle will leave the rec at 8am sharp.
