Anyone know how Rossco & co got on on Sunday?
Cycleways Cup
Darragh and John punctured but Ross finished in the "C" bunch, so hard luck boys and well done Rossco. lots of smashes and 200 riders.
Thats all I know. Fair play to Rossco for getting his road team together.

I finished in the main C group, Darragh and John were unlucky with punctures on the first lap. Not suprised though, the pot-holes were like moon craters.
Great race though, mad mixture of weather from blinding sun to monsoon rain. Made for a few hairy moments in the buch with lads jumping around and skidding.
I had to bunny hop over a massive crash about 1km from the finish!! There must have been about 10 people on the ground.
The pace was nice and speedy, 53x11 for a good few sections.
Roll on the Newbrigde GP next week....

Well done lads.....those bunny hops will come in handy for the Gorey
Bunny hopping madness...
Your Mountain biking skills clearly earning their crust.. Rossco pop out to Annes and we'll get you sorted with manual's and whipp'in over the Peleton...
well done on the race...

Aaah...I see...so 53/11 isn't combined age bike and rider category then!
well done to Ross & Darragh. Legends
I have a new tube for next week...
Maybe we'll see a few more road-loving epicurians come out of the closet.
Come on people- out&proud!!
Not a scary red mustache in sight either!!

Aah I thought the 53/11 was the speed to puncture ratio 53 Km/h until punctured at 11 mins. Good race, don’t know would I call it “Nice and speedy” speedy yes - nice no. Look forward to Newbridge next week.
do you not have tubeless ?
Roscos got tubeses whatever that is
Yeah tubs are the way to go - 220psi and less chance for punctures!
Just pop a downhill tube in and you won't get any more punctures... ;-)
