One for the MTB crew, I was talking to some lads from the Burren cycling club on Sunday last and they mentioned that they were in the middle of planning an MTB sportive through the Burren within the next couple of months. 70km with a ridiculous amount of climbing and actually riding THROUGH the Aillwee caves. Just thought some of you might be interested . Keep an eye out for "The Ultimate Burren" on the net.

I'd nearly oil up the bike for that one myself.

Looks good Patsy, think I will do this as a prep for the XCM champs. I have never visited the Burren, this is a great excuse

* Just realised I will be away, ahh well, next year maybe
