Winter TT League Round 1, and “Where’s Frank?”

Racing795’s annual Winter time trial handicap league kicked off in Ferns in monsoon conditions on Sunday 23rd October.

Aisling Foley was the winner on the day and is the early series leader. No doubt the handicapper will be out to get her next time.

Ross Moorhead had the fastest gross time, covering the 18km on his agricultural touring bike at an average speed of 35km/h. Very impressive in the conditions.

A notable absentee from the race was Frank Burke who, to give him his due, had a decent excuse. He cycled from Bunclody to Galway during Saturday’s monsoon!

Round 2 takes place on 20th November.

Winter TT League – Round 3

A “1-2-3” for the girls, winner Lorraine flanked by Ciara (2nd) and Joy (3rd).

The sunshine made a welcome return this morning for Round 3 of the R795 Winter Time Trial league. Lorraine Byrne was the worthy winner on the day with a big improvement on her previous time. Ciara and Joy also made  significant improvements, coming home second and third respectively.  Martin put out the megawatts and got around in the fastest gross time. Well done to everyone who took part and thanks to Tom, Ruairi and Paul for marshalling.

The club duathlon which  takes place on 20th February will also double as the Winter TT league Round 4. Should make for an interesting twist in the tale.
