Ardattin Entries open

Metal Sheep2014 021

The Ardattin is an ideal 200k for anyone wishing to try their first audax event or their first 200 of the season.

With plenty of support including an optional sit-down lunch at the Ardattin Inn.  The toughest part of the day is usually getting back on the bike after lunch when a post-lunch pint seems more attractive. Parking, changing rooms and showers are available at the Bray Wheelers clubhouse at the start and finish.

The route has been amended to cut out final N11 section, unfortunately this will make for a slightly hillier finish. However, the Rathdrum control has been moved indoors to Glenealy Community Hall so you can rest up and gather your thoughts before tackling the afore mentioned hillier bits.

Kings Mountain Sign On

We will be signing on from 6.30 am next Sat due to high numbers (50 plus). Can all entrants present themselves and their bikes to us in Whitehall car park before 6.45am. Their will be a sign on sheet and also a light check, ALL entrants must have two rear and two front lights, if you haven’t got two of each we will give you your 5 E back and we won’t issue a Brevet card, Absolutely no exemptions, you have been told in advance! We highly recommend a reflective jacket be worn in hours of darkness, cyclists need to be seen, especially when cycling in and out of Dublin in darkness.

Sorry for this hard-line attitude, but a small few insist on cycling like ninjas,i.e., in black and invisible!

So please be lit up like Christmas trees, thanks
