Founders Cup

After another successful Wicklow 200 last weekend, Sunday racing resumes this week in Summerhill with the prestigious Founders Cup to be competed for.

The Founders Cup was donated by the original founding members of the IVCA, whose names are engraved on the cup: Phil Byrne, Des Troy, Tom Dempsey, E. Dunphy, Denis Goody, Donal O’Connell, Dick O’Brien, Fred Smith and Paddy McInerney.

Sean Lally holds the record for the most engravings as winner of the event!

The race is run each year in an Age CP format.  Riders are handicapped in 5-year age groups, with the oldest riders first away.

Best of luck to everyone taking part and remember, safety is the most important consideration for us in the IVCA.  Always stay focused on what is in front of you and hold a straight line.
