David Costello of Orwell Wheelers is organising a talk/slideshow on his 2024 WAWA experience. The venue will be Old Wesley Rugby Club, Donnybrook on Wed 5th of February, 20:00hrs. All welcome, there is no charge, but to gauge numbers can folk please add their name to the Eventmaster list below.
From Kinsale to Derry via The Atlantic seaboard over 8 days and 18 hours, relive the adventure and maybe get inspiration for your own next adventure. Southwesterly tailwind maybe, rain jacket definitely. See you all there.
Congratulations to all the 2024 Super Randonneurs, low numbers but normal in a post PBP year. Team 905 rider Brendan McAuliffe became our first septuagenarian S.R. and remains an inspiration to all. Well done Cian Ó Lorcáin and John Lalor on completing their first S.R. series.

Message from the Organisers of the Birr 200, which was due to run this Saturday:
Good evening folks, a decision has been taken to postpone Saturdays Birr 200 due to the southern section of the route still having very dangerous road conditions. We are rescheduling to Saturday 2 weeks, the 25th January pending CI approval, we will confirm as soon as we get confirmation, we will also reopen entries if that suits anyone else who were trying to enter late. Ultimately rider safety is the most important thing and we hope everyone understands our reasoning for postponement. We look forward to seeing as many as possible in 2 weeks, safe cycling, Regards Criù A Chairde Gerry, Adrian, Peter
