Denis, Gerry and Ollie are the three main men for the Wednesday (and sometimes Friday) runs.
I'm sure one of them will post something.
Good to see you planning to get out with us.
You have been missed on the EDAC runs .

The midweek run is every Wednesday and Friday meeting at 10.30 am at the Bucks Head. The Bucks Head is the junction below Loughinisland Lake at the four roads where the Drumaness ,Ballynahinch road meets the Annacloy ,Crossgar road.All newcomers welcome.We cover somewhere in the region of anywhere between 30 and 40 miles and always have a tea ,coffee lunch somewhere on the route we go.If the weather is wet or very frosty we dont go out for safety reasons.All participants are usually club members and are therefore covered by our club membership insurance ,so we advise all people who want to join us to become a club member so as they are covered by insurance.Looking forward to meeting you fitsy.

Six out today, Ted,Rodger,Max,Paul,Joe and myself, We went a roundabout way to Newcastle where Joe got a flat while a we bit behind us,Robin came to his rescue and had it changed by the time Ted and Rodger got back to find him. After lunch in Nikki,s we all headed for home down the main road,38 miles on the clock. A big happy birthday to the Kilcoo man who was ** today .Still pushing the pedals at his age. He away for a relaxing weekend

Only 4 out today on midweek run,holidays and funeral, taking out 5 of our usual participants. Max,Rodger ,Trevor and myself, we headed of on one of Max's proposed new Sunday runs,up the New Line,Edendarriff, Spa,Ballymacarn ,Ballykine,Magherconluce,Drumlough,and eventually to Hillsborough for some well earned refreshments.We then set out from home into the teeth of a gale force wind the whole way home back by Cargaghgray across many junctions and back to Seaforde,we lost Rodger along the way as he cut of just after we came out of Hillsborough,Max went home at Spa and Trevor and myself split at Seaforde,when home 53 miles on clock and absolutley wrecked. The strong gale took it toll on us all.Max is proposing this as our Sunday run in a couple of weeks time. Good run but hopefully no gale next time.
