    would very much like to be up (about 500 metres from the summit - just as the road gets narrow and runs under the overhanging rock) on the Connor pass to watch the lads make light work of the climb - but theres no chance I'll get down.

    I'll be there. My plan is to drive to Dingle and cycle up the Connor Pass, aiming to get there 30-60 minutes before the peleton goes over (their eta there is 13:46). Once the riders and support vehicles have passed by, I'll shoot back down to Dingle for the finish while they're doing the lap around Slea Head.

    Cool ! I'm thinking of stopping on the descent side of the pass to watch them blast and then go back down for the finish, and then a pint in Foxy Johns. :)

    BTW I'll be driving, sacriglege I know, but I'm a complete newbie and my bike is only arriving tomorrow followed by pedals on Monday :mad:

    The forecast is looking like rain, but Dingle is usually drier than other areas so fingers crossed. I'll PM you later.


    Cheers,

    Murph

    Aw come on mate - use the jaysus spoiler tag will you! I managed to get through last evening without knowing who won so that I could enjoy the highlights. Won't be so exciting this evening now!
