Yeah it will but consider the time you put your energy in, over 13 hoursish, or all your energy in 30mins to an hour. It's no doubt that long distance and large hills are amazingly hard, but alleycats are a different game all together. You went out of your way to post up about Stein, without even knowing him may I add.

I gotta agree with Tom I'm afraid. It's nothing personal on Stein, but Slieve Maan on it's own would be tough on a fixie, but doing it after 150k, and then going pretty much straight onto Shay Elliott is a different proposition altogether, and nothing like an Alleycat. If you're finding the Magazine Fort hill hard, you will be in major trouble on the 200

(and yes, I do know Stein, have done the Wicklow200, and have done plenty of Alleycats in my time)
