Davy on his 62cm frame, Tonto hoping to be 62cm tall someday soon!

  • Great spin to the harbour this morning. 85km in warm sunshine at a good pace and still plenty of energy left for the final sprint with Mick Byrne leading out and Tonto and David Dempsey to the fore.

  • Mylie Kavanagh completed 125km this morning but was not impressed with his early morning ( and slightly damp) training partner turning back early on the tour – I’d be afraid to say it to a member of the defence forces myself but “big girls blouse” was the phrase Mylie used. 

  • Well done to Willie, Stephen, Shane, John and Paul who took on the 160km Twin Peaks Challenge yesterday.

  • On the racing front Alan Galavan took another great result today with 3rd place in Navan – subject to confirmation by Cycling Ireland that 4 points should see him upgraded to S2 in his first season racing!

  • Alex Williams and Frank O’Leary took a great 6th and 7th place on stage 1 of Rás Connactha with Alex also taking 5th on the stage 2 TT. With Alex finishing safely in the bunch on stage 3 his final overall position on GC is 4th. By my calculation that should be an extra 10 points on his S1 licence – well done Alex. Martin Gill (WW) also finished 6th overall. Great results from a quality field.
