Slaney Cycling Club would like to express our deepest sympathies to the family, friends and to some of our own club members who were close neighbours on the recent passing of Martin Kirwan.

Although Martin was not a member of Slaney, he was a very good friend to club when we held grass track racing for the underage and especially at our Mount Leinster Challenge as he would be seen in his familiar Hi-Viz vest marshaling our marshals on the best way to have car parked on what everyone considered to be ‘his field’ at Enniscorthy’s Bellefield GAA grounds.
The untimely passing of Martin will be a huge loss to all who knew him from ourselves here at Slaney CC, to Rapparees-Starlights GAA club, to the Enniscorthy community in general but even a bigger loss to his family and friends. May he Rest In Peace.
