12/05/2016 Ciclisport Glenshane TT Series – Round 1

Christie and Burns in Top Form at Opening Round of Carn Wheelers TT Series
The new TT Series being promoted by Carn Wheelers got off to a fine start this evening on the Glenshane Pass. All six rounds will take place on this course. The first round took place last night in dry and sunny conditions. However despite the seemingly ideal conditions testers faced swirling winds which made the going tough both on the way out and on the way back.

Marcus Christie of Causeway CC topped the leader board on the night with his blistering 19:57.50 time for the ten miles showing that he still has a powerful engine and will always be someone to beat. Craig McAuley of Caldwell came in second at 20:21.20 with the promoting club's Joseph McCrory next at 21:06.80.

Eileen Burns of Ballymena was the fastest woman on the night with a magnificent 22:58.70 despite the windy conditions. Joanne Regan was second with 24:46.40 while Mairead McCrory of Carn Wheelers was third with 25:18.70.

In the Master's categories, Emmet Vallely (North West CC) took the win in the M40 class and fourth overall. Carn Wheelers rider Gerry Kelly was top M50 while Sean Hargan of Phoenix CC was the top M60. Matthew McAllister of Island Wheelers was the fastest Junior with Darrell Erwin leading the way for hand-cyclists.

The club also promoted a club TT on the night and this was won by fifteen year old Cathir Doyle with a fantastic time of 22:41.6. I am sure we will see more from this young man.
