- Tour de Salle
This weekend saw the second annual Tour de Salle cycle where over 150 cyclists completed the 50km course in glorious weather conditions. The club would like to thank our sponsors John Kelly Opel for the fantastic hospitality , and the many cycling clubs from Waterford and surrounding areas who completed this cycle. The club would also like to thank the many bakers and sandwich makers for putting on such a beautiful spread, as well as the stewards, drivers and supporters who came out to help make this event such a huge success. We hope to see you all again for the Tour de Salle 2015.
