Four years away from the roads calendar, the Kells Road Races makes a popular return this weekend, hosting the third round of the 2019 Irish Road Race Championship’s.

A fast, flowing, technical, challenging circuit, the Kells course is considered by various roads competitors, as a full on, raw, pure roads course.

In recent times just some of the famous names to clinch victories at Kells have included William Dunlop, Michael Dunlop, Cameron Donald, Ryan Farquhar, Guy Martin, Dan Kneen, Sam Dunlop and Connor Behan.
