SSWC 2011 ~ Ireland :~)

Having just ridden away from an excellent SSWC2010 “race” I am proud to announce next years event will be in….

Ireland 😛

Close run thing against the South African entry, but the Potatoe lovers got it…

Bring on the Guiness 😛

Fantastic! Something to look forward to. Where about Ireland, does anybody know?

What ratio will we need ? 8)

That’s a good call, interesting place for an event and good for Ireland given the issues they’ve had over access for MTBing.

Now, where are my waterproofs and mud tyres… 8)

What tyres for Ireland??? 😆

Where about Ireland, does anybody know?

Yup, just over <<< there
😀

I’ll have my Irish passport by then 😉

mick, fancy sharing a lift from leeds?? 8)

Tyres? For Ireland? Gatorskins obviously. Oooops, you mean off-road? Why do you want to get your bike dirty? Why do you have those, what are they? disc brakes?
There’s some nice terrain over here, I just wonder where they’ll organise it. Ballyhoura[/url] looks great for that.

Isn’t this rather early days to be getting excited ? even for SS,bearded freak/niche world ? Do we have anyone willing to organize or a venue for SSUK2011 yet ?

Sounds like a plan 😉 depends on my leave tho as its now fixed and I can’t change or choose when I have it 🙁

well,considering Ireland ‘won’ it for next year,I’m guessing there was someone there who wants to do it ?

Oh,and a big singlespeedy ‘WooHoo’ btw

now wheres me Mud x’s…..oh,they’re already on….

Awesome – Can’t wait!

Finger crossed it doesn’t clash with my wedding… although if it does I know where I will be 🙂

Oh and SSUK 2011… No one has come forward with a proposal yet… come on guys!

XcKeith ? Engage your brain, Ireland got SSWC i.e the worlds not the SSUK i.e United Kingdom you muppet.
Matt , I propose we have a single speed race in the uk somewhere 😯

I propose you organise it 😉

Of course the SSWC wil be in Europe AS I’VE MOVED TO AMERICA 🙁

Did it at Dalby 2009 as the pink crew…. Rewarding but well stressed 😯
Where the hell is tuppsarse ?

Where the hell is tuppsarse ?

Other end from the Tupp’s Head?

Yes I thought that but why would you live in a sheeps bum ?

stumpynya12,what’s one letter between friends ? 😳 my brain dosen’t engage before 4.pm……

Just told the wife, and we’re already planning next years holiday around it.

See you over there…..

We may attend! Along as they have dome cheese to taste!

I’ve never been to Ireland, the perfect excuses!

Xckeith Your back on my xmas card list muca 8). My brain fell out last week as I turned up to ride whilst my kit bag stayed at home(25 miles round trip back to get it)… epic brain failure.

LOL,done the same with shoes once,and,er, helmet twice,der…..

I know what you 2 mean ~ I rolled up at the SSUK event in Machynllyth a few years back without my (spd) shoes and only spd pedals! Had to buy a pair of shoes in town; bit of an unexpected expense 😳

I was meaning to say it here but I posted on the SSUK bit. It went like this:
I’m thinking that if it were to be in the Cooley Mountains the local Dundalk MTB Club could be a great source of help. I don’t know the Irish ways well enough to get involved in organising but I do happen to know a couple of reps (Trek and Kellys). I will, however do my best to help with marshaling (unless I become so fit I’ll want to race which is as likely as England winning the Ashes this time AND the Scottish lad winning the Wimbledon next year).
When are you thinking of running it?

I hope it will be close to Dublin, easy flight from the USA……

In Ireland everything is near Dublin, apart from civilisation itself (it’s stopped over the Irish Sea).
