Sunday July 24th provides yet another opportunity for everyone to participate in the An Post Meath Heritage Cycle Tour in association with the Irish Sports Council.
The An Post Meath Heritage Cycle Tour has gained the reputation over the past number of years as being one of the premier sportif cycling events in Ireland. As in 2010, there will be 4 different events to choose from:
- 12km Family Spin - additional 2 km this year. This is a flat route which is suitable for all the family. Children under the age of 12yrs must be accompanied by an adult and possess some level of cycling experience.
- 40km Tara Loop - this very popular route remains the same as in previous yeras. It is a relatively flat route with a moderate climb to the Hill of Tara. Foods stop and welcome at the top makes this climb all worth the while.
- 100km Royal Tour - Latter 25km (approx) of this route has been changed, and is now a much flatter faster route. Participants would need a good level of cycling fitness.
- 160km Royal Challenge - Latter 25km (approx) has been changed, with slight changes up around Oldcastle. Route remains tough and challenging and takes in the 2008 RAS route. This challenge is not for the faint hearted - cut off time applies at 67.5km.
