The Women's Commission of Cycling Ireland will again host "Rás na mBan", a three day women's international road race this year consisting of four stages and based in the village of Sneem, Co. Kerry. This year the event will be a 'Festival of Women's Cycling' for all women cyclists from senior's down to the very young. The event will take place in the beautiful Ring of Kerry on Friday 12th, Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September 2008. The race headquarters will be in Sneem Hotel.
SPONSORSHIP
We are delighted to announce the new race sponsor for Rás na mBan is Sneem Hotel in Golden's Cove, Sneem, Co, Kerry.

FESTIVAL OF WOMEN'S CYCLING
Rás na mBan has become a very popular and well respected women-only International Road Race in Ireland. Already Riders from Germany, Holland and the UK have confirmed their 2008 participation.
The combination of county riders and overseas competitors ensures great racing, with the Irish riders raising their game, in a bid to score highly in the top county rider ranking. There are prizes on offer for the top 5 county riders over the line.

We would like to encourage Clubs throughout Ireland to enter riders in teams as they are guaranteed to enjoy the weekend, regardless of their level.
