Sean Kelly Is Coming! Miles For Smiles

Sean Kelly is coming to see Cunga Cycling Club! Even better again, he's coming to cycle with us in the Miles For Smiles event on Sunday, February 26th, 2012 in aid of Western Alzheimers

. 

Don't miss your chance to meet the King Of The Mountains and reminisce about tearing up the Alpe d'Huez or mincing down the Col de Tourmalet without brakes.

Fans young and old can ride alongside Sean, now the voice of the Tour de France on Eurosport, and chat about everyone from Alberto Contador to his great green jersey rival Jean Paul Van Poppel.  Mention the name Djamolidine Abdoujaparov, the giant Uzbekisitani sprinter and you’ll have the Carrick On Suir legend talking for hours!

David Pumps Out 1000 Watts While Having A Pint

Thanks to everyone who came to see us at Cunga CC  Registration Day last Sunday.  We brought the wattbike into the pub to give everyone the chance to pit themselves against Cavendish in a sprint.
Afterward David O'Loughlin, left aside his beer, hopped on the saddle, and easily squeezed out a kilowatt! Check it out!
