Eoin Ahern took the 2018 Club CX Championship. Andrew Ryan took this third Club Youth CX title.

 

Senior Results

We split the Senior riders into two groups, A and B, based on their on and off-road strength. Eoin Ahern took the win. He started with Callum and Valdis in the A group, the trio had to over come a two minute deficit on the B group. Ian Devlin and Barry O'Brien held on for second and third place. Valdis was distanced by Callum in the early stages of the race. He took fourth position in the middle of the race, but he ran out of road in he pursuit for a podium position.

Many of our senior riders were struck down by the Winter colds and flus that have been doing the rounds, so we wish them a speedy recovery ahead of the Nationals next week.

Well done to Andrew Ryan, winner for the third year in a row of the Senior Youths race. In the early stages of the race, Andrew had a bit of a gap to make up, but he worked his way back to the front and took the win.
