Energy Gels now in Portlaoise

Hi All,

just wanted to let you know that a couple of weeks ago I asked the owner of the Vitamin shop in Portlaoise on Main Street to get some of those tri gels that we all use during our races so we don't have to be driving too far to get them anymore. So he has them now for sale, got a few myself today and gues what...they are €1.5 each in the Vitamin Shop while Wheelworks or Buckley's in Tullamore sell them for €2.5. Thought I would let you know. Vitamine Shop in Portlaoise, end of Main Street, next to Remax. (yes, I'm hoping to get one for free for putting this on our web site:))

ORCA Wetsuit for €60

Bargain city. Mary Fingleton is selling her ORCA wetsuit (more like giving it away). It is in perfect condition so if you are interested let her know and she'll bring it with her to the next training session for you to try on. Sorry Pav but I don't think that it will fit you.

Wet Suit needed for Saturday Athy Olimpic Race

Hi All,

Ever since I started doing triathlons I've been using a sleeveless wet suit. I am considering buying a regular wet suit with sleeves now, but I would like to try one out first to see how it feels. If there is anybody out there of similiar size to me and would be so kind:) to give me a lend of his wet suit this Saturday, please let me know at 0872377919 or debakowski@gmail.com and we will negotiate a rental fee or something like that:) Thanks. Pawel

Early lift Saturday morning

Hi,

Just wondering who is heading over early on Saturday morning, and would be willing to give me a lift to Athy to help out at registration for 6am.

Thanks,

The Magic of Murt!

Hi everyone, just to let you all know that I posted my fastest time for 2009 on the bike today = 23:17. I didn't do any extra or ACTUAL training and I haven't changed my strategy. So is it possilbe that Murt may in fact have the magic touch? I'll be the first to say I think he does so if any one out there feels that their bike just isn't doing what it is suppose to do, contact our favourite mechanic. My bike went to Murt with a broken gear cable which was replaced, however, it also got a full service (and clean) and it felt smoother today than it has in a long time. Thanks Murt, €30 was a brilliant bargain. I'd normally pay between €60 - €80 for that kind of service.

Murt the Mechanic

Just to let you all know, that Murt the Mechanic has taken home my lovely Roo this evening to replace the brake cable that snapped 20seconds into the Duathlon tonight. It is great that we have Murt to help us with our bikes. This has saved me a drive up to Dublin tomorrow and I'm assured that my bike will be back on the roads in Port Laoise on Saturday morning for the Test Tri. No pressure Murt but if you are reading this, I'm sure my bike is fixed already. If it isn't, stop reading and fix it!! Just because you bet me by 17seconds this evening doesn't mean you can slack off. Thanks again
Sinead - the pest.

Bill and Ross

OK, so I know I keep going on about the 'Juniors' but did anyone take note that Bill posted the 8th fastest time on the run for out of 200 competitors while Ross posted the 10th fastest swim time? If we could keep up with them, they'd definitely be the ones to watch for in the future!!

Well done Pawel, welcome to the party

Hi All,
just trying to teach myself how to use trilogy chat:)

WHAT AGE????

GIRLS it doesn't matter what age you are (or what age some think you are). It is great to see you all out there.

Best of Luck to all doing Joey this weekend Old & New Members.  To the Newbes - beware this could be the start of a new addiction - it happened to me a few years ago.

ENJOY IT.
