Moynalty cycling club weekly update - this Saturday, we had over 20 members out for our weekly spin, with two groups meeting up in Hogans Farm Shop for a well deserved coffee stop. With many getting in their final long spin before the club trip to Sligo.
Joseph Mullen completed his 800km round trip as he raised funds for the incredible Enable Ireland with the help of his uncle Derek. Chapeau lads.
On Sunday, Luke, Conor, Thomás and Cathal took part in the Bobby Crilly memorial race. In the C1 race, Luke Smith and Conor Mckeown made the pivotal break of the race with Luke coming in third spot in the sprint for the line and Conor crossing in 11th. in the C3 race, father and son duo of Tomas McCabe and Cathal McCabe had another fine race together, with Cathal taking 3rd spot and Tomás coming in 5th
Well done lads.
