Big news - Racing795 on the podium at the G-Ride!
Well done to Ross who took third place in his category today, a fantastic achievement in a field of about 60 riders.
Well done also to DavidF and Lynn Hayden who also rode strongly - results to follow.

great day. kudos to Ross, we thought he had won, but 3rd is pretty good he'll be hard to stop next week with home support

Course was brilliant, i think the best I've ridden in Ireland. Switchback climb was the main feature, there must have been 15 switchbacks...Big field in S3's, i had some traffic problems early on but managed to work my way up the field a bit. Lynn also had a good race, not far behind Ross. Also one to watch for next week.

Thanks to Rudolf and Brian for the shouts of encouragement from the sidelines, hope to see you both back racing soon

Roll on next week!

[DavidC]

Provisional results are up - see S3 for news of our heroes. Great finishes for all, the hard training is really paying off.

Ross is 2nd in the results but that's an error as you can see from the photo above

Just in case you didn't know, these lads and a few more are hoping to race on home turf next Sunday so please make sure to give them plenty of loud 795 support!

(BTW If you haven't volunteered to help out yet please visit the members area and sign up asap - you are needed!)
