    Great route and a good turnout this morning for the Joe Loughman. Hard to put a figure on the number that signed on as it's not a mass start event but there were quite a few people on the road. Good aul food stop too halfway between Greenane and the bottom of the Elliott - plus we got a chance to see a bit of the Laragh Classic too.

    Well done to everyone that completed.

    +1 on that. I did it with my wife and a couple of friends and we had a great (though leisurely!) day out. We managed to hang on the back of a large group as far as Ashford but from then on we were on our own. Our special thanks to the organisers who waited for us initially at the food stop and again back in Bray. By the time we arrived all the other entrants had long gone home so fair play and thanks again. We'll defo be doing it again next year.
