Ballinrobe 2 Day 2009

The Ballinrobe 2 day August 8th and 9th is the only Handicapped stage race in Ireland where Ladies, Juniors, and C riders can compete fairly with A and B riders.

This year we have changed the route, making it a bit hillier with 5 KOH’S but the route will be a lot safer as the finishes are all outside the town.

The Race starts on August 8th with a 90k hilly route starting at 3pm.

Sunday Morning at 9am there is 8k TT from Kilmaine to Ballinrobe

Sunday 1pm another road stage of 90k taking in a 2 lap circuit with 2 small KOH’s

Sign on open Saturday at 12noon from The Western Lakes Cycling Centre on the Kilmaine road Ballinrobe.

This race is pre entry only and will be capped of at 120riders so enter early.
