It seems there was a cock up on the result sheet sent to Sticky Bottle. Joe tells me he was 4th not 3rd.

M40 Podium Neil, Eoin Whelan, Ian. Great show lads.

Phil.

Six of us entered the event but unfortunately only five made it down there, a middle of the night plumbing malfunction, our heating system, not me personally, ended my plans.

Hearty congratulations due to all.

Neil Delahaye,  Champion, Gold Medal, M40.

Ian Cassidy, Bronze medal, M40.

Joe Sheehy, Bronze Medal, M50

Ken O’Neil and Ian O’Hara 16th and 21st respectively in M40.

So. Saturday’s 10 TT at Johnstown Bridge wrapped up the leagues for the season. The results are now available for all to peruse on the google pages.
Next Saturday, 25th is options day at Moy Valley when final opportunities for 25 and 50 times for the BAR / FAR exist after which the final Tables can be produced. Fingers crossed everyone for a dry calm day, we live in hope.

Please all note that the start time for the TT has been moved to 0900 in order to allow time for everyone to get to the AGM at1430, West County Hotel, Chapelizod.
HQ for the TT is at Warrenstown Arms car park as usual with the start / finish on R125 at the road race s/f.

A fair morning for our last championship event.
Thirteen brave souls took on the test looked after by Medic ( not sure who was on duty ), timekeeper Harry and a full compliment of marshals so thanks to all, with four roundabouts to negotiate it’s great to have every junction covered.
Gold medal ride was by Hugh Davis with a super 2:06:06, and an Age Standard time of Plus 28:41.
In the process he actually lowered his previous years age record for a new age 71 record. On handicap Hugh was 6th.

Silver medal goes to Pat Byrne with a 1:58:24 ride for Plus 23:38. Pat took 5th place on handicap.

Bronze medal goes to Ian Cassidy with 1:54:16 for a Plus 22:52.

Fourth place was Phil Ormrod with 2:18:56 for a Plus 19:43, also good enough for a new age 74 record lowering Fred Harte’s 2013 record by one minute exactly.  Phil also took first place on handicap.

5th place goes to Mark Kidd with 2:00:47 for a plus 18:47 on his debut 50 TT with us.

6th place goes to Peter Raftery with 2:10:39 for a Plus 18:16 and also taking 4th place on handicap.

2nd place on handicap goes to Noel Conway.

3rd place on handicap to Ian O’Hara

Fastest – Ian Cassidy. 2nd – Pat Byrne. 3rd – Mark Kidd.

4th – Ian O’Hara. 5th – Ken O’Neil. 6th – Noel Conway.

Commiserations to Peter Rice and Brendan Byrne both of whom were DNF’s.

Final TTL event this coming Tuesday, 7th Aug at the green sheds for the Circuit TT.

So. The end of the drought, if today was anything to go by. More like a miserable morning in April 🙂

Ten very wet and cold riders and the same for the Marshals and timekeepers.
Thanks to Harry and Michael on the watches, Victor pusher off, and to Dave, Brendan and Eddie on the roundabout.
Next Saturday is the 50 TT Championships at Moy Valley. Note. First man off is 0900 not 1000 which has appeared inadvertently on an earlier calendar.
On the same calendar the Sanyo Cup on 16th Sept appears as 0900 which is also an error, the correct time being 1000.

A beautiful morning but a disappointing turnout of just nine riders. I guess holiday time will account for that.
A full compliment of officials and marshals however so all went off safe and well.
Congratulations due to Ian Cassidy on lowering a long standing age 44 record with a great ride of 0:21:32.
Nobody beat handicap this morning but I got a nice bonus by being closest to it :-)..

Nice to see a couple of first time road bike competitors joining us, welcome Paul McDonnell and Gerd Benndorf.

Next Saturday we are at The Hatchet again. Another calm day would be nice 🙂

The following Tuesday, 17th, we are back to evening racing with the Al Fresco 25 TT at Black Bull.
