Round 2 of the EMS6 league took place at a very windy Toome on Sunday 24th. Riders were greeted with similar conditions to round 1, blustery crosswinds on the exposed parts, but generally a very strong headwind on the longer outward leg, and a fast 30mph average run home. It didn't put many off though with a huge field of 77 riders signing on, what numbers we will have on a warm evening on a fast course I can't imagine, though to be honest I'll just be glad to see a warm evening and a fast course.

Colm Cassidy made the long trip up from Dublin worth his while, with a clear winning margin over his rivals as he tunes up for the Nationals, second was Patrick McKenna who along with his teammate Martin Sherry have jumped up a level this year, taking the fight to the leagues other proven runners. Winner of round 1 John Madden was also on for a fast time, before puncturing at the 8 mile point, limping home making the restart and still having the legs to clock the third best time.

Eileen Burns of BRC won the women's by a mile, and Marc Heaney took the juniors prize and will certainly clock a very fast time before the season is out.

I'd like to thank James, Mark Eddie and Anna Marie for their admin and timekeeping duties, and all the riders who made use of the pre entry as this cuts the work load enormously on the day.

NOTE:
One rider was identified riding on the white line, and a complaint received regarding this. Please note that anyone observed breaking any of the rules will be removed from the league It is very dangerous and selfish for the other competitors as the PSNI will ban future events unless we comply with all regulations. So please don't be the one responsible for destroying it for everyone.
