Rás na mBan is delighted to have had the support of Wexford County Council in 2024, another valued partner in helping bring Ireland’s premier women’s stage race to life.
Wexford’s roads offer a challenging and scenic backdrop for world-class racing, and its local communities play a key role in creating a welcoming atmosphere for riders, teams, and supporters alike.
We’re grateful for Wexford County Council’s investment in women’s sport and their commitment to supporting events that promote participation, visibility, and excellence in Irish women’s cycling.
Their contribution helps us grow the race each year, and we’re proud to include Wexford in the journey of Rás na mBan.
