    Looking for something maybe about 100k, definately no more, I just wouldn't be able for it. I have so far only ever done 70k

    I have done a search and the only thing I can see happening is the Orwell one, but that is to far for me and they don't have a shorter option

    The 100k on the Carlow cc Silabh Bloom Challenge
    is a nice course, it bypasses the Sliabh Blooms
    so no serious climbs on it just 2 short climbs
    one at the start after approx 3km for approx 3km more a drag than a
    climb.
    and the second one coming out of Stradbally with about 25km to finish
    called the Windy Gap nice climb of approx 2.5km that will
    test you steady the whole way up.
    Worth doing? yes
    Well orgainsed Yes
    Good food stop in Mountrath
    I am doing the 160km again this year in heavy Training for the Marmotte
    in July.

    Is anyone doing this? I'll be there in my boards jersey - struggling at the back more than likely..
