Friday 16th November saw the second annual awards night for Crossgar Cycling Club in the Corner Inn Crossgar. It was great to see so many club members there on the night having a great time. It is an indication of how well our club is coming along to see so many new faces since last year, especially the increase in ladies and juniors.
Chairman Ted Ellison provided some comedy and also gave out the awards.
The first award of the night was the ever popular cyclist of the month award with the prize being the coveted pink CCC socks.
The winners were – Theresa, Fergal, Loris, Ross, Roisin and Conor

Many thanks to the Corner Inn for their hospitality.
Remember we still have a full schedule of cycling over the winter months. Sunday runs continue from SuperValu at 9am with groups suitable for all abilities. The Tuesday night flying squad go at the same time 6:45 and a new MTB option is also available in Castleward on Monday evenings – check the messenger groups for details on that.
At this time of the year remember the lights, mudguards and hi-vis ( and money for coffee and cake – it is the off season after all!!!)
