Leinster Wed 22-Jun Crit A+/A1/A2/A3/A4 Youth Stepen Roche GP DTC Orwell Wheelers Dave McLoughlin 087 9908528 1hr+laps 6.45pm Yth 7.45pm Snr Ballinteer Community School
This a great race around the estate where Stephen Roche grew up, it will be handicapped but it's going to be fast. There's always a good crowd and lots of prizes. Because the road race nationals is on this weekend you might get a few Pro Tour riders there, Nicolas Roche was there 2 year ago and great to watch.
It will be dangerous if the rain keeps up so be careful!
I won't make it tonight as I have being off the bike for a month and went up to IMBRC race last night and nearly died, it will take a few weeks to get back.
Rob, I went to see this last year and I really wouldn't recommend it as a first race! Very fast, close and tight (it's around a housing estate ffs!) - you would need to be comfortable riding fast in a big group and with holding a tight cornering line! I certainly wouldn't consider riding it!
Well worth a look though!

Can't anyway no A4, I might go for a look sure it's only down the road.
I'm definetly going to do a road race sunday week if there is something suitable. Hopefully there will be something on.
Richard, we'll have to get you out on a road spin before that, and teach you all the tricks, your too good of a rider to be going off the back. Remember I told you my goal for you before.
Might be a good one for me, what you think Morty, you looked broken tonight by the way, Vinny fitz dropped out too the feckin speed is savage saw a deadly crash on the second lap a bloke from team buggy prams and babies or something, lost the front end and another bloke rode straight into him ouch!!!
Holy Sh!t, it's amazing after a few weeks off, how you feel getting back on the bike. I started with the A2's, there was only about 12 of us and the speed was on from the word go, there was no place to hide, it left like someone cut open my chess and was poring Tequila directly into my heart, I lasted about 25 minutes with them and then dropped back to the A3 where I got alot of shelter and finished the race. In all a good hour of pain. Thanks for the support Simthers, sorry I could talk more at the start but I was running late.
