Women’s Cycling Ireland Training Camps |
DUBLIN, IRELAND (Team Geared Up) Maybe after my miserable attempts on two wheels, this is what I should be doing; A Women’s Cycling Training Camp. The first one was held at the end of January and the second one is 23rd/ 24th Feb. in the Avon Ri Centre, Blessington, Co. Wicklow (you get to use their pool and gym too!)
Cycling Ireland are holding two training camps for women cyclists and will have Aidan Ryan, CI Coach of the Year, in attendance to work specifically with mountain bikers, there will be specific road biking coaches there too.
This camp is not aimed at elite cyclists, but anyone who wishes to improve their cycling, or to learn more about mountain biking or road biking. It will be suitable for all levels and all ages including complete beginners. I will be there and if there is enough interest can do a session on how cycling can be used to improve your hill running performance.
They will also have a sports physiologist, sports nutritionist and a sports psychologist in attendance over the weekend to give talks and answer any specific enquiries.
The cost is €100 and that includes accommodation, dinner, lunch, speakers and coaches.
To sign up & for further information, email: womens.cycling.ireland@gmail.com or call 085 7399603 (Alex Dobbs) or 086 2500754 (Orla Hendron) 0876286296(Beth McCluskey)elizabeth.mccluskey@dit.ie
Between this and the mountain biking spins organised by International Riders Jenny McAuley and Beth McCluskey things can only get better…

Btw Ais, do you know is it Beth who might be doing the talk on how MTBing call help your hill running?
Cheers Jackie! Are you going?
Don’t know if Beth is doing the talk, I might ring up and see if there’s places left and ask! :-)
yes think I might try to alright….
need all the MTB advice I can get these days!
I’d say there are still places. Just send off form and cheque! (I sent forms didn’t I?)
Be great if Beth did the talk eh! Hey maybe you can do a run session for the Mountain runners and teach us how to be awesome and savage like you! ;)
Hi Aishling & Jackie,
We could easily do a talk about adapting bike training to hill running and vice versa, how to structure training and prepare for peak performance.
We’re hoping to have 2 mtb groups this time, one for improvers and one for beginners. We can do technical session and 1 fitness based session if people are interested. let me know what suits,
Beth
Thanks Beth. I’m sending off the forms today. I’ll probably be looking for help with the road stuff (I’m a lost cause on the mountain bike!)
No way aishling - there’s no such thing as a lost cause :) I’m contemplating trooperstown on sat so might see you there!
Great Beth - might talk to you about the training camp then!
