The 2016 Sweeney/Garland/Byrne Memorial race was held on December 4th on the Green Sheds circuit. Known informally as the hamper race this commemorates three Wheelers who were sadly taken from us before their time.

The race was held over a little over a distance of 44 km with three groups or riders. The first and the second group merged but the Scratch groups was not able to catch them. The winner for the second year running was Oisin Smith.

Dublin Wheelers Hill Climb Champs will take place on Saturday 17th September. The route will be the same as in previous years, the 4.2k climb from the Merry Ploughboy to just before the viewing point on Cruagh Road.

Two events will be run; the club hillclimb championship, in which Ronan will defend his crown, and we are planning to revive the Guess the Time Touring Challenge, where riders can guess what time they will complete the climb, and the closest wins. Riders entering the latter will have to ride without a computer. The event is open to all members.

The plan is to decamp to the Timbertrove, beside the HellFire Club car park, for recovery refreshments afterwards.
