As I'm sure you are aware our round of the nps is fast approaching and there is a bit or work to be done on the course.
With the NPS in Sligo the following Sunday we decided this Sunday would be a good day to get this done.
The work will involve clearing and repairing part of the course that may have been damaged over the winter and reinforce parts of the course so that they will be able to withstand the traffic on the day.
If you can bring along some general gardening tools rakes, shovels, spades etc.. that would be great.
It would be great to see as many people as possible lend a hand to this.
Oh yea, forgot about that, do you know if there's any new trails, or just use the Coillte and whatever else has been in place for ages?
They tend not to use the Coillte trails Graham, if they do it's just a small part of them, otherwise all off-piste (some entirely new trails). For the first time there will be six stages rather than five this year.

Would luv to get a look at the stages, hopefully the biking.ie crew have done a bit of maintenance work on the intended trails...
I'll be there from half 9 and I reckon 2.5 to 3 hour's should do depending on numbers
No bother at all happy snapping
Yep Gary lower carpark if you want to give me a call at 11 I can let you know how we are getting on and how long more I estimate we ll be there to see if it is worth the trip my number is 0871388201
Also I'm going to grab some lunch then head for a spin after if anyone is interested in joining me
