Leisure 60km
This smaller less challenging cycle taking in some of the best scenery in County Down and sharing the same tea stop in picturesque village of Letrim. While there are some hills it should be suitable for most cyclists.
Moderate 80km
This option is a hybrid of the leisure and Hilly 125 route. Those finding they have "bitten of more than the can chew" on the main 125 can return to the finish via the 60 route from the tea stop in Letrim giving them a total around 80km. This is also a welcome option should the weather turn bad.
Hilly 125km
This has been described as one of the toughest leisure tours in Ireland. While it may not be as long or have as much climbing as some it more than makes up for in quality what it lacks in quantity as these little steep hills just keep coming one after the other with little break in between. This is a tour that has to be tried at least once or as with many a marker to see if they still have what it takes.
Showers and a BBQ await at our headquarters The Dromara Village Football Club. A quality certificate showing your route, and an invite too next years Hilly are yours with our great thanks for your support
This photo shows an example of the bar and BBQ. As for the showers you will just have to take our word that he is clean behind the ears!
