Just a few words on the course.....Its quite different to 2013...This year it will start and finish in Kilbrannish Woods - same place as our Leinster League XC races So no long tarmac drag at the start and finish...There will be a neutralised start for about 2k on tarmac road and then...singletrack heaven! The course is about 35k with about 1,300m of climbing. Most of that is in 4 climbs; consequently there are 4 long descents! With shorter singletrack climbs and descents in between.

Some of you know me - I'm a mid pack S3 rider of average fitness and ability (!) and it took me around 3 1/2 hrs yesterday. I can feel it today! The last 15 mins is solid technical descending, will leave you knackered at the end but with a big smile!

Hope to see a big IMBRC crew on the day!

40km, thats pretty much the majority of the trails they have out there. A really nice day out on the bike lads, great trails.

[Paul]

It was good fun last time they ran it

[Jimmy Mr Excuses]

Some of the best trails in Ireland in my opinion but now that I know them I don;t see the benefit in paying to ride them

I hope to make this . Never raced there before so looking forward to it.

[Ger]

I'll be there.

Any advice on bike to choose, 100mm XC or 120mm with dropper post?

[Jimmy Mr Excuses]

Take the 120mm with dropper. Will make the decents much better.
