More than 600 cyclists took to the roads of Kilkenny, last Saturday, for the annual Tour de Kilkenny! Attracting participants from all parts of Ireland, the event is organised by local club Marble City Cyclers. This was a special year for the club, as it was the 15th year of the Tour de Kilkenny. They marked the occasion awarding all finishers with a bespoke medal and treated them all to a gourmet burger when they got back to the Kilkenny Rugby Club base. There were three routes this year - the 77km route, the middle distance of 110km and the testing route over 160km. There was also a new Strava Challenge on four different routes, giving everyone a chance to compete. Well done to the organisers and everyone who took part! Claire and Holly O'Brien.
