When you reach Cork city, take the N22 west as far as the Ballincollig west exit(r608), you will immediately take the Ballincollig exit(last exit) at the first roundabout,and straight through the second roundabout(2nd exit for Ballincollig west) between two arches.
Go to the end of this road(go straight through a small roundabout half way down) and at the traffic lights take a right turn. At the next roundabout take the first left for Inniscarra.
This is a very narrow two way road so carefully over the bridge and at the T-junction take a left turn for Dripsey. Nearly there now. Set your mile clock now and there is 4.9 miles to go, the club is on the left, around a tight bend, turn in tight left at the water-ski club sign.Park your car and come and say hello.
