The Irish Veteran Cyclists Association
Racing Since 1966
Please be advised that
Thanks to all our Marshals, Volunteers and Medics on the Day, without whom we cannot Race !
It got hotter as the race progressed and the heat certainly was on the chase groups tried to catch all ahead of them !
The 50 – 55 Group held off the chasing groups ( 39 -44 & 45 – 49 ) of the younger men who did n’t even make a dent
into the gap of the group ahead of them. Managing to catch all but for the duo of Hugh Davis & Jimmy Lally who stayed
away out front. Hugh taking the win from Jimmy by less than half a wheel in a closely contested finish ! John Brady
took the bunch gallop taking 3rd. As they say age is only as the fast men stay fast !
