thanks guys...looking forward to Tralee in the Sun now!

We can figure it out as we go along this weekend but some of the basics:

Start Point for Saturday/Sunday: outside apartments 9am

Food Stops:
Day 1
Dingle-there is tonnes of options...if it's sunny grab a coffee and sambo and sit on the wall!
Day 2
Glencar Clmbers Inn(same place as last year.) I've been in touch with them and they will be open and will have sambos and soup for sale.

Big Hoolie Sunday Eve
Will be getting names and numbers on the start line Saturday. We'll be eating at Bella Bia at 8pm.

Helen has posted up already about Friday and Saturday...thanks to Helen for organising these nights out.

Just for the record...this will be Ryanair approach to weekends away:
-Get a puncture? Fix it yourself!
-Feel like a coffee mid spin? Buy one
-Is your pillow lumpy? email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
-If you get lost? keep cycling until you find Tralee...

See you all Friday.

Hi Everybody,

Unfortunately, I have to pull out of the weekend away so if anyone needs a place to stay my room is now available. You will be sharing with Gar, Dave H and Diarmuid D and therefore guaranteed good craic! Please post here if interested, first come first served. Have a great time and cycle hard!

Cheers,
Darragh
