    Just a quick note to say 'Early-bird' registration has opened.
    We're also doing a 'special offer' as well for anyone who wishes to sign up early.

    The event is on the 26th August, looks like the busiest cycling day of the year all of a sudden.

    All registration closes on 31st July - no entry on the day unfortunately.

    All information available on www.lapthelough.org
    You can enter via the website or via www.Facebook.com/lapthelough on the Wazala tab.

    Good to know, I did this event last year with my girlfriend but it is in need of improvement.

    I would happily repeat lap-the-lough if the queues were shorter at the lunch stop, the high-5 gel stop near to the finish acually had gels and that gobsh1te operating the loudspeaker microphone wearing the fur-print cowboy hat was removed from the event.

    err not exactly flat though (one of the main advantages of lap the lough ) nice not to be slogging up hills all day for once
