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

An updated Entry Form has been added to the Permanents page. ALL entrants for Permanents (Members or Non-Members) should complete the Entry Form for each ride, and send it to the Event Organiser.
