Emyvale Cycling Club is carrying the load, and excitement, of promoting the title races this year and it's a big responsibility. They've shared some crucial details relating to the TT title races on Saturday morning.
Race HQ is at Ardagahy Community Centre, Ardagahy, Co Monaghan, H18 WF29, with sign on opening at 8am. All bikes must be checked with the jig at race HQ and failure to have that check performed will result in riders not being allowed to start.

Similarly, if riders miss their start time, they will not get another one, meaning you should be at the start - about 250m from race HQ - five minutes before your official start time, below. Arm bands must be collected by all riders at race HQ and worn during the TT.
Warm ups are not allowed on the TT course - from Ardgahy heading away from Monaghan -once the TT has started. They must be performed off the TT route after 10.00am.
The turning point is around 300 metres further back from the main N2 roundabout than previously advised, with that change made in a bid to increase safety for all participants.
Best of luck to all at Emyvale CC and, of course, to all the riders.
