Carlow RCC 2 Stage Youth Race

Please note: this event is only open to Youth cyclists with Cycling Ireland membership.
Road Cycling is the most widespread form of cycling. More people are taking to the roads on bikes than ever before, be it for leisure reasons, competition, or commuting, the benefits of cycling are endless. Carlow RCC plan to host a 2-stage youth race open boys and girls from across the country. This will be open to the following age categories: under 12, under 14 and under 16 youths.

Traditional road racing is the most popular form of cycling in Ireland and is held on public roads where the first past the line wins after a mass start. Stage 1 of the event will be held near MSD, Carlow. Marshalls and support from An Garda Siochana will support the safe running of the event.

The time trial will form stage 2 of the event where riders race solely against the clock as they ride individually over a set distance, with the aim of completing the course in the shortest amount of time.
