John J BarryJan 8 2019, 10:10amFound a couple of GPS files online and combined them using Garmin's Basecamp to get the proposed route for the Skyline:

Can't vouch for the accuracy/distance/Height gain shown
Robbie WilliamsJun 19 2019, 5:21pmThere will be a change of route to the Reeks Skyline. The route goes up in distance and ascent.
New course is 30km with 3000m ascent.
Please make yourself familiar with course in coming months.

As a result of this we will move the start time back to 8:30am

All relative details will follow including bus departure to start, entry price etc.
All who sent in email and are approved, you will get an email when registration will be available to purchase.

Alan AylingSep 6 2019, 4:16pmWould rocking up late tonight in the yard in a van and sleeping in said van be unwelcome?
