Tourists complete their programme.

Sunday, September 6, 2015
Last Sunday 6th September. Ballymena Road Club’s touring section held their final "away for the day tour” when their, "last resort”, tour of the harbours took place from the duck pond in Ballymoney.
This end of season tour proved again to be very popular with 26 taking part and it was ridden at a moderate pace. The route included Macfin, Mountsandel, Coleraine, Portstewart, Portrush, Portballintrae, Dunseverick, Port Bradddan and Ballintoy, where there was a tea stop at a new venue "the Red Door”.

Then it was on to Ballycastle and the inland route along Moyarget road to Toberdoney cross roads and then Dervock and on to the finish at Ballymoney for a total of 57 miles at 14.5mph average. The tourists were also joined by a few other club members who had cycled from Ballymena to take part. By the time they were home they had 95 miles in their legs.
