Entries opening March 01, 2012 for this Carrick Wheelers Challenge sportive,

”Bobby Power’s Carrick Wheelers Challenge Sportive 2012”

Several Wexford Wheelers and Slaney Cycling club members took up this challange last year in its inaugural year, covering somewhat unknown roads and routes around Tullought . Faugheen, Kilcash, Ballypatrick and Tickencor,  before asscending into the more familiar Nire Valley routes and Comeragh mountain routes, such as Mahon Falls and LemyBrien. The challenge then presented its ”strada bianchi”,  a grueling stretch of  ‘strada’,  that just shook body and soul.

Facilities on the day were also top notch, pre and post the event, with support vehicles, marshalling, safety warnings,  changing facilities, showers, ample parking and great food post the event.

Thoroughly recommended, tough day. Of all the sportives, it is one of the very toughest, but thoroughly dooable.  A great challenge for 2012.
