With the Mick Lally Memorial race having been cancelled at short notice last year due to the death Ian Gallahar of the promoting club Dublin Wheelers CC, the event returns this year with an extended format.
The Mick Lally Memorial Race will be the main event on the day – Saturday, March 2nd - and will cater for A1 and A2 riders. However, Dublin Wheelers have now added the Ian Gallahar Memorial for A3 riders in memory of Ian, who was a lifelong member of the club and a well known commissaire for decades.
There will also been a third race in the shape of the Dublin Wheelers GP, which will cater for A4 riders.
