Category Rated Climbs in Cork

HobbyMan · 2014-07-20 10:35:10

Does anyone know of a few hills in Cork (city and surroundings) which are of a 'category' calibre as in the TdF? I wouldn't mind trying them out to see how tough each category is. TIA. :)

I believe Strava categorises climbs similar to that in the TdF, so see here: http://www.strava.com/segments/explore
