2010 Sportives/Charity Cycle Calendar?

NV011956

Hey lad's, myself and a few mates are interested in doing a few sportives/charity cycles this year. We are new enough to the sport and only started heading out for a few spins last summer but found it great craic. We ended up doing the Rebel Tour in Cork(only the 60km route, will be aiming for longer this year!!) Anyways, I was wondering if there is a calendar of these type of events anywhere online. We'd be looking to do maybe one a month and a list of events would give us something to aim at. Thanks for the help, by the way, super forum.

The KARE TDF will be held on Sunday April 11th. Once again Naas GAA Club are generously giving their facilities this year to us and NAAS Cycling Club are giving us their expertise. You can visit our website www.karetourdefoothills.com to see last years route and get an idea of how the day went. We would love to see you there.

Specifically this XLS sheet. Just posting the link because the CI website is a PITA to navigate.

It has a 'Leisure' tab with lots of sportives listed.

Well it's already been rescheduled from 3rd of January, on which Cork had swapped it's roads for an ice-rink. I reckon things will have cleared up by Sunday week.

the 100km and 50km both started at 11 last year and will probably be the same this year. the 20km family cycle will start at 12 midday. a great event for all the family to participate!!!!

Sorry the KARE TDF 100km amd 50km started at 10 am last year. The family 20km cycle starts at 12 midday... Same times will apply this year too.
