    Short enough, the bike section will be cancelled.

    From that I've heard there is zero chance of that.

    There could be a hill involved.....

    I think it may be due to precedence, as an example two races I entered in Fingal last year both did not successfully get their cycles away (3dtri in NAC had race shortened and another race in Skerries I dare not mention could not include cycle split in official race time). It seems to me that there is a difference in interpretation of the rules of the road in this district (not sure if it is Guards or Council).

    From what l have heard.......

    Some actual comments from NGBs would go along way. I know I won't be entering any North Dublin races until there is some comment.

    Given the (in my opinion silly) ban on discussing the elephant in the room then rumour will be rife

    Where can one see this ban written?

    You would think they would get all issues resolved in north county Dublin before giving skerries the Irish Duathlon Champs and a NS race to the NAC. Could be messy.
