    Does that mean men can't take part?

    Yes, thanks. Did the motorway cycle to Athenry two weeks ago so this was an excuse to travel on the M17 by car and see a bit more of the county!

    Just did the 60k with a friend who's new to cycling so we took it easy. Very well marshalled, nice refreshments and you were all very friendly. Well done ðŸ‘
    We were talking to some women from Clare - couldn't believe they have such a big women's cycling club in Ennis.

    Delighted to hear that you enjoyed it. Thks for your support. Yes, the Clare Ladies CC is a superb initiative and is encouraging so many women of all ages into the sport for the first time.
