    Alas not! It's the 'Kearneys Road' circuit. It's at tough one, including Sky Hill. It would be more similar to the Des Hanlon circuit yesterday, than to the the Glenbower circuit. I'll be doing it.

    Hi ya there stranger, not quite as hard as Des Hanlon but hard just the same, Kearneys road being the toughest climb. Hopefully be doing it myself so see you there.

    Results are here
    I did the A4, enjoyable race. We had 2 laps of the circuit with that long climb in the middle of it. On the first lap the climb split things up a bit but a fairly pedestrian descent back in to Carrick brought it all together again by the start of the second lap. This time I tried to do some damage on the climb but by the time we reached the top I had done more damage to myself than the rest of the field. There was a couple of breaks after that which came to nothing and there was a bunch finish. I thought I'd come 8th but the results appear to differ :( No matter, it was a good day's racing.

    Well done, Showry.

    It's been a while since i've raced... I will be in Fermoy next weekend. How was the pace in the bunch today?

    It was grand really. My Cateye showed 20.1 MPH. avg. for the A4 race. I checked out the route on: www.ridewithgps.com - thanks to Lumen on the Stamullen thread - there was 850 odd metres of climbing in the race. Mind you there was, as showry said, one very pedestrian section for 4/5 miles. Over all a tough race though
