Good report DC 
Thanks to Barry for transport and driving.
That was a great day out on the bike! A day of firsts for me, apart from the result
First year racing, first marathon, longest distance covered, longest time on the bike, first time on boardwalk, first chain break and fix! Can't wait till next time!
Singletrack that sweeped along to the extent that you didn't need to brake all that much at all. Corners bermed so you could sweep through them. More stone on them than on the roads around Graiguebeg for sure!! Will definitely be going back to Ballyhoura on the mtb.
