Rose maria to take road trip to tralee to hand back tiara

THE final days of her reign as Rose of Tralee will be as spectacular as her crowning, with Maria Walsh returning her tiara to Kerry in novel fashion.
The Shrule native is taking on a 242km Trek2Tralee cycle-road race challenge in aid of three different charities.
She is hoping members of the public will join her as she runs and cycles through five counties, before arriving in Tralee hours before she meets those vying to claim her crown in this year’s International Rose Festival.
