The North Tipperary Wheelers Cycling Club, based in Nenagh are this year, celebrating their 30th birthday and we are hoping to see as many cyclist as possible cycling with us around the beautiful Lough Derg next Sunday, May 14th for our annual club tour.
The cycle is 75 miles / 120k and encompasses areas of Clare, Galway and Tipperary along the way. It starts and finishes in The Lakeside Hotel in Ballina, Co. Tipperary, a lovely hotel set in stunning scenery. The sign-on is from 8.30am in the hotel leisure centre and refreshments will be available for the early risers before the start. There will be a choice of three groups – leisure, leaving at 9.30am, intermediate at 10am and the seniors (30kph+) at 10.30am. The cost is €25 with a licence and €30 without. There will be back-up vehicles, broom wagon, ambulance, motor bike marshals and help will always be available. The half-way refreshment stop is in the beautiful Portumna Forest Park and showers and more refreshments can be had at the hotel on return. There is also a chance to support the North Tipperary Hospice Movement if you so wish.
