    Unless you want to be crew for an Ultra attempt?

    I'll crew for you if you return the favour once in the following 4 years :cool:

    Pat Doocey, has just finished. Outside the time limit but finished all the same.

    Tough man

    Well lads, a 99er here. That was some battle. Threw everything at ye (STCC) and Veloroos including the kitchen sink to claw back minutes. Wasn't to be. For three teams to finish that close is unreal.

    A penalty early on proved the difference between 2nd and 3rd for us, 4mins in it at the end.

    Kudos to you all.

    Hi all, I was lucky enough to be part of the 4 person winning team.. Team Aspect from Co.Kilkenny.

    It was the toughest test of mental and physical endurance I've ever experienced but also the most rewarding.

    We four cyclists buried ourselves for four days and led the race from gun to tape but believe me the winning of the race around Ireland is all about the crew and in my opinion we had the best crew in the history of this race.

    We cyclists had to concentrate only on riding our bikes as everything else from navigation,strategy,nutrition etc.. was left to our magnificent crew and they executed with a professionalism that Team Sky can only dream about.

    Well done to all who completed this race in whatever capacity you may have participated .

    Well done Charlie. I just copped what club ye are with. Are ye all Comer men?
