Ulster Road Race Championships

Tuesday, August 27, 2013
Ballymoney CC are promoting the 2013 Ulster Road Race Championships. The race will be using the same circuit where Sigma Sport professional Peter Hawkins took the honours in 2012.
The circuit has been described as one of the best in Ireland, winding through the lush green Co Antrim countryside, racing at neck break speed through "The Park" with its narrow Flemish style lanes, passing through the most photographed natural phenomena in Northern Ireland,
The "Dark Hedges" and enters the sleepy village of Stranocum. It is in the center of the village where the finish line is located.
The sign on is as usual at the Ballymoney Rugby Club, 63 Kilraughts Rd, BT53 7HL from 9.30am. In 2012 Ballymena RC rider Connor Young won the silver medal in the junior category.
Categories are as follows;
Senior men: A1 - A2 - A3 and Juniors 8 laps (80 miles) starts at 11.00am.
Veterans: 6 laps (60 miles) starts at 11.05am. Women 5 laps (50 miles) starts at 11.10am.
