IVCA Sat TT_10 .

The final event of the Saturday TT League took place yesterday, 17/08/19, in mixed weather with a stiff wind blowing.
Joe, Ken and Ciara took the prime places on Age standard with Ciara knocking 37 seconds off the current Ladies Age Standard record in spite of not being happy with her form πŸ™‚
Joe, Ken and Ian O’Hara took the actual time positions whilst Barry, Ken and Ciara filled the handicap slots.
Congratulations all and thanks as ever to the timekeepers and marshals who make it all possible.
Numbers were done somewhat but holiday time and weather probably not helping there. Next Saturday, 24th we are back at Mother Hubbards for ” BAR options Day ” where last opportunities to improve on 25 and 50 times are available. I just wish I could avail of the opportunity but it’s not to be. Fingers crossed for 2020 πŸ™‚
Tuesday 27th wraps up the TT Leagues leaving just the end of season markers of the 2-up and hill climb to round off 2019 competition.

IVCA 50 mile TT Championship. 03/08/2019.

Just eleven entrants on Saturday. A mixed weather day but not disasterously so.

Thanks to Harry and Dave for the timekeeping and to the full compliment of marshals. It was good to see that the road works at the Kinnegad bypass end of the course were to no detriment, in fact we though it was improved by the Garage and Tesco sites.

Hugh shaved an impressive 4 min 1 sec off the age 72 record held by Sean Lally, with his Gold Medal winning time of 2:09:11 for a plus 26:49 age standard. He also collected 3rd on handicap on the way.

Ian Cassidy’s 1:53:53 took the Silver Medal although, by his standards, somewhat off the pace.

Ian O’Hara’s personal best 1:58:07 took Bronze medal and a well deserved first place on handicap.

Brendan Byrne shaved a couple of minutes off his handicap to take the third place on handicap.

Congratulations also to Paddy Davis with a new Age
( 72 ) Standard Record of 2:33:05 taking 1:48 off Patsy Fitzsimons effort in 2010.

Another chance to do it all again, or to ride if you missed Saturday, arises in two weeks time, 24/08, on BAR Options Day.

The final event of the TTL is on Tuesday 27/8, the circuit TT on the Culmullin cct.
Cheers,
Phil.

A great day for IVCA Time Triallists.

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,Β  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.

IVCA Time Trial Leagues, 2018.

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.

Sanyo Cup. Two up TT. 16th September.

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.

IVCA TTL-10. Culmullin Circuit TT.

So that’s the finale of the TTL but not yet of the season as a whole. Next Saturday 18th, is the SatTTL finale at Johnstown Bridge and the following Saturday 25th we have the Options TT day at Moy Valley where last efforts for BAR / FAR 25 / 50 times may be had. It would be nice to see everyone out for that and the excellent Mother Hubbards’ breakfast afterwards.
That just leaves the two up and the hill climb to round off the year.
I’ll confirm the all league positions after final checks after the weekend.
Phil.
