But in Galway there is obvious disappointment that the Galway Classic - the only race in the country with gravel sectors - has had to be cancelled.
"Due to low entries, we at Galway Bay CC unfortunately have to cancel both the Great Gravel Adventure on June 6th and the Galway Classic on June 7th," the club said.
"Neither event is sustainable. We would like to genuinely thank all those who entered and supported the events. And we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this might cause you, and hope you find an enjoyable alternative for this weekend.
"Refunds will be sent in the coming days - no need to contact us, it will be made automatically to you."
