So over the last few weeks, I've focused on adding a some videos onto Youtube. Trying out diffrent content. Happy with how it's going and experimenting with posting on this WordPress site, posting on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. This week I've focused on doing a 'Daily Vlog' and played around with different apps from GoPro … Continue reading Kinning Vlog – About
So a few years back we started the ball rolling with Stormont regarding a cyclocross race. The area's that we wanted to use was well out of bounds, a big NO NO. We were shown another area of Stormont that we never knew existed. Lovely area but wouldn't have worked as a cyclocross course. At … Continue reading Throwback: We got to see Stormont Castle
Dunngaon, Windmill Park. Another round of the Ulster Cyclocross Leauge from 2005. In the B race Johnny Reid wins, on a MTB. Full squad in the A race. I took an early lead but dropped the chain.

Took the new GoPro to the Giants matchs. A first for myself. Sunday saw a bit of training at Stormont, then the real session, beat the street with the kids. Followed by treats at "al gelato", Ormeau Rd. https://youtu.be/LBCM5HidcOs
2015 Larne cyclocross. Probaly on paper one of the dullest area's to run a cyclocross race. But Madigan always make a great course some tight features with the banks. https://youtu.be/4heQoOrT4bI
Start of this week was all based around building a Trek madone 9.9. A few hours spent working on this beauty. Unfortunetly not my bike. Also had some runners flag my bike ride on stava as I am using a forerunner. Hill reps on Tuesday where I was not at the meeting. https://youtu.be/cZpPR23xW2E
In 2005 Kinning Cycles & I ventured to Belguim. The Homeland of cycling, never mind cyclocross. I was the only rider to race as another club member pulled out at the last moment. This passion funded from racing the World Cup the year before at Miltion Keynes. I took on GP Hasselt, part of the … Continue reading Throwback: Racing in Belgium 2015 (Hasselt & Koksijde)
Not much pedalling done this week. Bit of a head cold. Power cranks fitted. Not power meters. Some cyclocross coaches appearing out of the wood work, some that haven't even ridden a cross bike never mind raced a cross bike. 3 hour spin on Sunday around coastal path and then up through Leadminds.
So each season I sit down look at the calendar and work some sort of scheduled out. Pick the races I'd like to do and note the ones I can't make. Obviously, life can affect this as we go, sickness, work and family life. It's a good idea to look at the season, work … Continue reading Cyclocross schedule

Excellent use of the space by Karl Dolan. … Continue reading Cuchulainn Cycling Club Cross Races
