The circuit is 31.5kms and incorporates 2 Tuesday circuits that we already use with the Culmullin road stretch removed.
Map and route detail below so have a close look at both to familiarise yourselves.
We will have a briefing for each race before the start on Sunday.
Marshals, please arrive on time for  briefing and Junction/Corner/Lead Car  allocation
It is important not to block the road outside the Hatchet before the start, we will call each group out onto the road in race order.
Your co-operation is very important to help for a smooth start.

Race Results 25th July – Beehive Circuit

Hi everyone.
 Glorious weather again for today’s race at the Beehive.Thank you from the Race committee for your support and your co-operation,
Thank you to the Paramedics, Motorbike marshals, and to the staff at the Beehive pub for your great support.
Thanks to our marshals for keeping everyone safe.
Thanks to Brendan Culleton for the photos and the Photo Finish.
The winners from each race who received a Winner’s  Medal are as Follows.
RACE 1 Cahir O’Higgins
RACE 2 Ciaran McSweeney.
RACE 3 Anthony McMahon.
RACE 4. Result – Null and Void.
RACE 5 Terry Ryan.
Extremely close finish in Race 2 and Race 3 and the Photo Finish (thanks to Brendan) was required to confirm the result in both races.
The Green race result is Null and Void as the Scratch group caught the Greens on the last lap and some of the Greens jumped onto the back of the Scratch group and were Towed to the finish. If this situation arises again, the slower (caught)group must sit up and wait for the faster Race to pass completely before resuming their own race.
Lesson learned hopefully!
Next Sunday 1st August  Sign-On from 8.00 am will be at The  Hatchet pub for the Green Sheds circuit again.
