Hope all is well with everyone. Today is just a quick update on some recent news and I am going to do a quick run over of the equipment I will be using in 2012.
In 2012 I will be using a new frame and groupset, kindly sponsored by my Dad - John McCarthy. It will be the 2012 Cervelo S2 Frameset. I will be running Ultegra 6700 groupset with Rotor AERO 3D+ Cranks and Rotor AERO rings (53\39 Round). The rest of my finishing kit consists of 3T Rotundo Bars and Stem (42cm, 110mm), Fizik Arione Saddle and Elite bottle cages. I will be using 2 sets of wheels for racing on this bike. One being FFWD F6R's and the other being the 2011 Mavic Ksyrium SL both running on Continental GP4000 tyres. So far, I am really enjoying riding the bike and it will be interesting to see how it will perform in a race. Guess I'll find out at the weekend!
In the past week or so I have also received some good news involving the team I have ridden for in 2011 and will be riding for in 2012 - ASFRA Racing Team. ASFRA are now in a partnership with the UCI Continental Registered Team - "GEOFCO Ville d'Alger". The new Continental team has some of the past ASFRA riders including Thomas Vernaeckt and Henryk Cardoen. This is great news for all of the ASFRA riders as it gives us all something to work towards. In the picture below of the new team's jersey, you can see the "ASFRA Racing Team" logo in the middle pocket on the back and the "FLANDERS" logo on the front.

So that is it, I'll leave it at that as I am racing twice this weekend. In the Carrick Cabs Cup Saturday in Carrick-on-Suir and in Newbridge on Sunday. Therefore I will update again after the races.
Thanks for reading,
Eoin
