A slightly damp and cold evening Adrian, Dylan, Dessie, Coby, Robin, Hayley, Niall Mc, Conor M, Gary and I setoff round Mallard, with coby heading the opposite direction to the rest - and so the stage was set for a bit of a head on - don't actually know how it was resolved - only no injuries. Peter joined us for 2 minute chat and then headed home - obviously conditions not perfect. Dylan had a puncture with a sliver of granite, and then we rejoined the main path, with several of us cutting the top part out to catch the others, and so it persisited with gaps forming and the bunches reforming. Dessie and Dylan headed off home, followed after the audleystown loop by Gary heading on his way.
The rest ploughed on back up through the field, with coby taking the traditional route instead. I returned via the short cut with 13 miles of forest trails on clock, so maybe 2 miles more for the faster bunch.
Good run.
Our thoughts are all with Denis today as he undergoes an op to reinflate his lung, in RVH. Best of wishes from all the club and our families
