Stena Line: a friend to cyclists!

The HSS from Belfast to Stranraer
The generosity of Stena Line has taken both the Sandy Wallace Women and Women's Cycling Ulster by surprise. Without their support, the Irish Exchange would not have been such a huge success. 


All the women (not to mention Jon and William) would like to offer the whole Stena team a massive "thank you"!

SWWR owe a huge debt of gratitude to Clackmannanshire Council for stepping in at the last minute to provide us with perfect facilities for our skills session on Saturday 19th February. We would particularly like to thank Nicola Bennie for making this happen.

A former SWWR member, Fiona and Mari smashed the women's team record in the 2009 25 mile time trial championship. This superb result looks likely to stand for a long time to come! 

This year Fiona is having the season of her life (even though she is yet to race!) following her selection as tandem pilot for Lora Turnham. Fiona is currently in Manchester, preparing for the forthcoming Para-cycling Track World Championships. Everyone here at SWWR are massively proud of Fi and wish her all the best for her trip to Italy (11-13 March). Go on lass!

Nice, tight group riding!

Although sport is not her usual subject matter, Nadia was the photographer at the 2010 Ras na mBan. Her images capture the event brilliantly.

The image on the banner of this website is of the sprint at the end of stage four at the 2010 Ras na mBan, showing Jay coming 4th behind Kirsten Peetoom, Alli Holland and Irish national champion, Olivia Dillon. 

SWWR wish to thank her for allowing us to reproduce her images here on this website. We hope to see her again at the 2011 Ras!
