Same crew as last week Darragh off first in under 14 race, followed by Emma in women's race in torental downpour of rain which turned the course into total quadmire, met eireann and Max both had both be promising a scorer of a day
Next up Donough and myself in the B race think I can say both of us had our best result to date finishing in top half of field we where also joined by Mick who finished 10th after missing his name being called for griddiing
In the A race Colm was 6th first M50 closely follow by John in 8th

All washed up now and ready for next Sat's race

Best of luck today in Belmont for those heading out to represent the club. Not sure what the course will be like but it'll be great fun slipping and sliding around.

Thanks Terry ,interesting results. It took a few minutes to get the confidence back..which is strange considering I have a memory of a gold fish!. Looking forward to building on this. Brilliant course by Brian mc Chrystal..even a bike wash after.

Well done all Epic riders...I should make the next one.

We went up to watch and hurl abuse, but Finn was having none of it, so only got to about half hour of the women's race. Looked like a proper grassy slog! He perked up when we went over for a burger, don't know where he got that from!

First CX race in years for me. A slog but fun all the same. The course held up despite the rain this morning and the sun was out for the main races. Nothing particularly hard about the course but the wet grass meant you never got a rest. A case of peddle up, peddle down and keep pedalling around the corners.

Had a good battle with a few others all the way round. Good to see Donough and Mick racing as well, and to catch up with Harri afterwards.
