Results of St Patrick’s Day Races in Donegal and Ballymacash
While St Patrick may not have turned over the sunny side of the stone, the bitterly cold weather did not deter riders turning out for the two races held in Burt Donegal and Ballymacash in Lurgan.
In Donegal North Pole CC promoted a series of races covering the junior and senior categories. Mark Potts of Neon Velo romped home as winner of the main race while Claire O Neill of Armagh City Cyclists took the women's prize.
Meanwhile in Lurgan Clann Eireann CC were promoting the Derrymacash GP, a handicapped race for A3 and A4 riders. Phoenix CC riders Conal McKee and Padraig Rogan took first and third while home rider, Ciaran Cahoon, took second.
