OK folks, as you probably have heard or seen the bogman is being amalgamated with the ballinrobe 2 day to create a brand new 3 day stage race called connacht 3 day. Starting in ballinrobe on Saturday afternoon and finishing in tullycross that evening. Sunday stage is on a familiar bogman lap, and Mondays stage starts in tullycross and finishes in ballinrobe. Looking forward to seeing all the familiar faces that supported the bogman down through the years, and lots of new faces as well. All connacht 3 day info can be got on Western lakes cc.com.
Yours in sport jj Flaherty, Western lakes cc.
