Currow Cycling Club are pleased to announce the
Currow Cycling Club Leisure Tour
On the 16th of June
Sign-on will commence at 9:00 in the Currow Community Centre.
Fee is €15 and non-members of Cycling Ireland will need a one day licence at a cost of €5.
Start time is 10:00.
This is a leisure tour and we hope to complete the 60 mile route in approximately 4 hours.
To accommodate the huge disparity in cycling ability, we will be leading a group at 9:30 to allow riders who feel that 4 hours is restrictive the opportunity to complete the tour at their leisure and ensure that this event is enjoyed by all.
The route will start in Currow and take in Castleisland on its way to Tralee. Then out of Tralee on the Castlemaine road and the first food stop will be at the Castlemaine Creamery. The group will split here and those on the 60K route will take the road to Farranfore and then Currow. The 100K route will head to Milltown and onto Killorglin. Next to Killarney and a food stop outside the town, before heading into Farranfore and then to Currow. Food and refreshments will be available at Currow Community Centre.
