Epic MTB 2015 XC National Champions!

Well, what can I say only, WHAT A CLUB! To have not one but two Irish National Champions!! Alfie and Colm McG! And many podiums, John Doris, Daniel Brickenden, Phill Tighe, young Brendan Conroy, even me!


Fantastic results and a great representation of the club. Well done to everyone who participated.
No!


I think the National Champion of the day should be Max Power, for all the work he did to create such a brilliant event, all went off smoothly, without his hard work and dedication we wouldn't of had such a great XC Champs race event!
Also well done to Erica G who completed 4 laps in a tough course of women elite racers...

And Terry Beard who completed his 4 laps in the Super-dooper Vets...

Not to mention Gary Kidson, who wanted to go home after his tyre ripped but I wouln't let him and made him go buy a new tyre!
Philt on the the podiums in the 50+ cat and the beard in fourth too QuinlAn fourth in the vets
But ride of the day was dan fourth overall and second place under 23
What a day , great results all round for the club on a killer hard course !
Thanks again to max and all the organisers .

Well done everyone , especially Colm, Alfie and Dan. Great work by Max for such a big task (and dealing with lads who wanted to preride the course!)
Well done to everyone who raced today.Looking at the results,Colm and Alfie both did their races in the exact same time,if Im reading it correctly.
Ugh that was so hard! Totally wanted to quit after about 2 laps! Well done to all you savages on your podiums and awesome results, sure you're only deadly :)

Second that! Even the fatlad here had fun. Thanks Alfie for the dig out of the tyre, thought my day was done before it even started ripping a sidewall on the reccie lap.....good to have a National Champ as your wheel guy :). Thanks to Caroline and Brendan C for doing bottles, Graham and the epic heads for the cheering, and thanks to Colm McG and John Doris for lapping me and sparing me a 4th run up the grass climb!

Well done to the podium takers, and the 4 lap makers.....Thanks Graham and Terry for convincing me to hang about, although a Novice podium means you gotta race the proper race next time Graham....Sure you're lapping way faster than me ya banger :)
