    What would people consider the hilliest races in Ireland?

    I did the Stamullen GP last year and loved it, found it much more enjoyable than flat races. I know the Des Hanlon and Nenagh Classic are supposed to be very hilly as well. Are there any other races as hilly as these three?

    DeRonde van Cork have taken over the Minane Bridge classic. It's a feckin brute. No big "climbs" as such, but not an inch of flat road in the circuit.

    July 2nd. Bring your light wheels, climbing legs and cajones.

    In terms of one day races the Deenside Cup and Shay Elliot would be equally hard races. Charlevile stage 3 is probably harder than all of them but is a 2 day stage race.
