The race notice is at http://www.irishmarathoncanoeing.com/files/KilcullenNotice2009.doc

The race is on the 17th-May. I think this could be a good one for the wavehoppers.

Kilcullen is just at the point where the M9 to waterford meets the M7 to dublin. Bit of a distance but i would say you could make it from cork (dunkettle) in about 2 hours since the road is nearly motorway all the way at this stage. Probably same time as to thomastown but with more distance travelled..

Don't know much about the course myself but they do say in their flyer that the river will be in flood (a dam release?) and that its not suitable for beginners.
