    Just two additions/changes to the route this time! You know we just love upsetting those Strava times :D:cool:

    U14 and U12 now added to the roster. 1 lap of hardship for the kids :D

    We'll be visiting family close by that day so I'll be sure to bring our bike obsessed 3 year old along to cheer yee on. If you hear a little girl excitedly shouting "Big bikes" that'll be us :D

    Bump for this!

    All signed up!

    Coming from Kilkenny, is anyone driving that direction? Happy to chip in for fuel, etc.

    Also, I'm great company in a car: I sing Disney hits and I will obsessively remind you if the speedo nudges over the limit. I'm also hyper-critical of imperfect gear shifts.

    are you good at 'you go this way? i'd have taken the right back there, it's quicker'?

    All signed up, great event.

    Thanks guys, signing on online makes our lives so much easier the morning of and leading up to the race. We have quite a small pool of CX helpers/volunteers so every little thing really helps the cause and helps the day run smoother. The more streamlined I can make it the easier it is to convince others to help!

    See you all Sunday, the weather forecast doesn't look too bad either!

    Very similar, slightly different start point.

    Weather forecast long term is hinting at dry and sunny again with a high of 8deg.

    I'd say it's gonna wet and muddy though. Heavy rain tonight with cold conditions to follow.
