Open Time Trial 2018

timetrialheader

 

Naas Cycling Club in association with McCormack’s Bar, Naas, will host a testing Open Individual Time Trial on the roads south of Kilcullen town.  It is a real test as it is the route of of the 2016 National TT Championship

The venue remains the same as last year – the Kilcullen Sports Complex (Kilcullen Community Centre on google maps etc) on the Curragh Rd out of Kilcullen, Co Kildare.

We have decided to use the 2016 National TT Course – a challenging 38.3km trek to Athy and back. It is the ideal warm-up event for our top testers as well as a chance for all the racing categories to give themselves a serious challenge this season.

Prizes will be given for the overall winners in elite men and women; there will be prizes for unplaced riders in the CI categories; depending on entries, we may also consider a prize for masters and juniors.
