Many thanks for all the emails and messages on the forum, it makes all the work worthwhile. This is a sample of the emails we received.

First off, congratulations on a really well organized event. This 200 is the 4th 'sportive' event I have done in 2010, and it was easily the biggest and best organized. It would not be fair to compare this years versions to previous as this year was streaks ahead in terms of organization and support (the marshals deserve special mention)
The route, noticeable harder then previous years, the loss of the Wicklow Gap (a personal favorite of mine) was disappointing, but the stretches around Rathdrum and Avoca made up for it.
The only downer was the road surface quality, I know having ridden in Wicklow for the last 6 years that it comes with the territory, but it is honestly the only thing holding the w200 back form being one of the best cycling events on the European calendar, and with the incredible popularity of sportive events, it should be something even Board Fatlie should look at.
Great job guys
Chris


Congratulations to all who completed the Wicklow 200 and Wicklow 100. We hope you enjoyed the day and look forward to hearing your comments.
Thank you for your patience in the weeks coming up to the event while we got all the packs out and for your co-operation on the day.
Best wishes to those who had any kind of mishap along the way. Hope the injuries heal up quickly and repairs to machines are minimal.
Thank you to all the stewards, marshalls and helpers who gave their Sunday to help us stage this great event.

A special thanks to Sean Kelly who stood into so many photos at the finish.

The IVCA would like to thank all of our supporters who helped us stage the Wicklow 200/100. Without your assistance it would not be possible.
