How Much Support Does Race Around Ireland Provide?
Race Around Ireland will oversee functions at the start and the finish and will recruit volunteers for each Time Station. Each Racer must provide their own support crew and support vehicles. A typical crew will have 8-12 people and 2-4 vehicles. Its the responsibility of the crew to care for the racers by providing food, clothing, medical care, bicycle repair, massage, entertainment and directions. Crewing for the Race Around Ireland Racers is as much of a challenge as riding is. It offers some immense rewards of seeing the country, building some lifelong friendships and the pride of getting your racer safely around the country. The Race Around Ireland website will also help racers advertise for crew.
