Sean Kelly rode the Down event in 2010 and was impressed by the route and organisation of what is destined to become a very popular event. Never far from the edge of Strangford Lough the route meanders along quiet lanes through a countryside that is steeped in stunning scenery which will help to take your mind off the undulating terrain. A novel ferry ride after lunch on both the 100km and 100-mile routes provides a brief respite from cranking the pedals!
