Entry numbers for the Travers Eng. Annacone GP are disappointingly low; an all too familiar trend.
Based on current numbers we’re likely to be running the event as a single handicap race accommodating all categories. That’s not our preference, and we’re pretty sure it’s not the rider’s either. We are considering at an A1/A2 handclapped race alongside an A3/A4 handicap race, but we need the entry numbers to support it. We’ll make that call in the next 24 hrs or so, so we can plan accordingly.
If you intend to race, please get your entry in. https://eventmaster.ie/event/rkGZIPmS9y
