The cycling season is usually well advanced before the Mayo Wheelers CC comes out of hibernation and launches its cycling programme for both the racing fraternity and the leisure riders. Not so this year. In the Atlantic Coast hotel yesterday evening the club announced that one of its showcase events, the Atlantic Coast Hotel/Sheeffrey Grand Prix will be run this year in march and will be the first event in its Classic Series.
