    I had no idea there were so many cycles going on. I knew about the W200 but that was about it. Great to see. Thanks.

    There is nearly a tour on every week in the summer sometimes they clash and can be 3 or 4 tours on on a sunday. The W200 is probaly the most publised thats all

    Just stumbled on the forum in the last few days ( great info) . I've only started cycling seriously in the last 2 years , do fair mileage every week ( maybe not in your leagues lads/ lassies) ...about 120 to 150 pw . Point is , I am not attached to a cycling club and normally cycle on my own . But I did the 100k in the Sean Kelly cycle last week and really enjoyed it , would it be necessary to join a local cycling club to enter these other cycles nationwide ?
    I'm in my late 40's so is it too late for me to join clubs like that ? I've a good fitness level now but I'm sure lads my age in these cycling clubs would have been competetive in their earlier years and be much fitter . Would they welcome lads going through a middle age crisis (haha) ??
    Also could someone post up a site address for upcoming cycles ? I live in Waterford , so I would be interested in cycles in the Munster / south Leinster area ................
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Deisetrek,
    AFAIK you generally wouldn't have to be in a club but sometimes you may have to buy a one day licence.
    I'm not sure if you're in the city or the county but Dungarvan CC have a leisure spin every saturday and sunday and are always open to new faces.

    Thanks showry , I'm actually in the city so I'll try a suss out a few people as to what to do . Would love to take part in more cycles in a group 'cause it was definitely different ....
    thanks again for the reply
