Brief Description of the Race

Race Around Ireland is part of the Ultra Marathon Cycling Association (UMCA) World Cup series which includes other huge endurance races such as The Race Across America. 
 
Unlike other cycling races such as the RÁS or the Tour de France, the course is in no way roped off. There are no marshals controlling traffic flow and there are no planned rest stops or stages in this event. 
 
Once the clock starts in Navan at the starting time, it won’t stop until each rider reaches the finish line at the end of the 2,100 km circuit. 
 
Time Stations will be set approximately 40 to 80 miles apart. At each Time Station, the crew call into Race Headquarters and report the racers location and time. 
 
This information will be posted on the Race Around Ireland website and it will allow the officials the racers followers to track the cyclists progress.
