Thread: An Post Rebel Tour, Mallow (Cork) September 13th.

Started 3 months, 3 weeks ago by Nova_era
Hey everyone, my name is Rory and I'm new to these boards (and can't believe I've found somewhere to discuss cycling!).Will many of you be doing the Rebel Tour on Sunday week? After the SK tour last Sunday, I'm quite hyped up about it, although even though I'm from Cork I can't say I'm familiar with the area.Can any locals shed some light on the climbs involved in the 130k, or even the "Mount" ...

If you did the 100 in the SK i would think you will be fine for the 130 just do it at a sensible pace and eat plenty. Not from the area but have been there a couple of times and would think it's more rolling countryside with a couple of climbs. If you have some spare time you can plot it on map my ride and see what the elevation is like.

Yeah the hills are not that bad really and with a coffee stop in the middle you will be fine

I'll be at the Banna Tag Rugby thing on the Saturday, but I really would like to do this. Is there anyone on here thats not so fit, but wants to do the 130km? All my cycling mates will be in France going up hills. Also, is it the same organisers as the SK? I was well impressed.

Actually PM me if you want to form a mini group for the event. No blorgs or Tax men or other fit feckers. Belly required.

All the events are run in conjunction with the County Sports Partnerships and local clubs but the template seems to have been the SK. If Sligo and The Burren are anything to go by organisation should be great.

Thanks for the tips guys, hopefully a bit of discussion on the event will get going in here. Was the organisation in the SK tour exceptional, or is it common to all these An Post cycles?
