Comment by Annabel Cox on March 29, 2012 at 8:29 Yes will be in Clare for the 'dinner' but not the ride, other accom options are the Bentley's hotel 8842 1700 and the Taminga hotel 8842 2808 they are either side of the Clare hotel (middle pub) in the main street, otherwise there is the 'Clare Central' - Comfort Inn 8842 2277 if you want a bigger room, it is at the northern end of town and within walking distance of the main street. Hopefully the head wind is not as fierce for you this time!
Comment by Framer on March 27, 2012 at 18:01 I will try and get the weekend off.
accommodation all booked
All booked in at the Hotel. I asked about how many room they had available. The lady said thay "are pretty right'. I presume that means they have most rooms still available.
For me it will be the first time backing up 100km+ rides - looking forward to it!
