All-Ireland Underage Success
By admin | August 29, 2010
The club’s underage riders had a very successful All-Ireland Youth Championship which was held in Tyrone this weekend. The highlight of the weekend was Michael O’Loughlin’s victory in the U13 Road Race Championship. Michael attacked on the last lap to solo to victory with a winning margin of 10 seconds over his rivals. Sunday’s Road Race victory impressively added to the two bronze medals that he collected on the Saturday in both the Time Trial and Criterium.
In the U15 Road Race Cian Dwyer rode impressively to the claim a bronze medal with Sean Hahessy narrowly missing out on a medal in the U15 Time Trial placing in 4th.
