Extra race ??????

fondriest

Hey ,
Our club is trying to gauge interest in adding a race to the calendar on the 29th of Sept to extend the season a bit . Late season races can be very poorly supported so just trying to see if its worthwhile . It would be based near New Ross in Wexford and we're looking at a combined A2/A3 race and a separate A4 race .
Not sure of distances yet but it's a safe circuit with good roads , fairly flat but with a 4km drag just before the finish.

Decision will be made over the weekend if enough interest shown .

I ahve only one question, but an important one: how draggy is the 4k drag? I can't see myself trekking to New Ross for a flat race, but if it had a hilly finish I could be tempted...
