Family race days

Last year at both the Dunmore East and Carrick on Suir triathlons we had a sizeable enough cheerleading squad on the sidelines and along with the fine weather both days it made for a great day out
So what does anyone think about this year? (MTB'ers too)
Dunmore East is coming up again and I think there are a fair few of us entered into it again, anyone planning on pulling along family/friends/pet dog??
It would obviously be weather dependant but sure no harm in making plans
Anyone else think that Dunmore East might be a race to bring family to again this year?
Anyone a suggestion for another race day out?

Wait until you have 4 kids and see if you're still making suggestions like that :D

The transition area in dunmore is great fo kids, big green field but the finish area is a nightmare with it finishing on a busy open road and a challenging walk with a buggy between them.
Havnt done carrig on suir so can't comment
I found athy for swimathy great last week for the kids, lots of green spaces at the swim start and finish areas
