Peak Power Challenge with Winning Solutions @ DCT 2010!

Hey all,

This Saturday at Dublin City Tri registration we're giving away €500 in vouchers! We're bringing along the Wattbike and running a peak power challenge. It's a fun event that takes about 10seconds to do, so it won't tire you out for the race. Prizes for the first 3 males and females. So give yourself a chance and wear a pair of runners. See you there!

Starting this Tuesday - Women's only Spin class

In order to fill the gap left by the great racing in both women's leagues and to continue improving the level of fitness we have a Women's Only Spin Class every Tuesday up to the Rás na mBan. That's 10 weeks in total, split into two blocks of 5 weeks each. These are specific classes which include all aspects of race fitness, and as they are indoors everyone can go at their own level without any fear of getting dropped.

We'll also provide free tea and coffee in keeping with the tradition of the league.

Booking is essential, either call me on: 087-2441210 or 01-4097711 OR click on "Prices and Services" and then "Booking and Payment" on the main web site
