The sun was out on a balmy evening as the super surface of the continuous hard shoulder,and rolling aspect led to a raft of super times.

Eoghan Considine powered his way to victory in stage 3 of the TT series in a race moved from Moycullen to Craughwell because of roadworks. The winner averaged a speed of very close to 40KPH for the 12 km course to finish in just 18:20. Dave Keaney put in another strong performance to finish second in 22:41 and move him into the 'malliot jaune' going into the final stage of the series.

The Ladies race was an absolute ripper with just 2 seconds between Winner Kristen Riall (22:30) and Miriam Wall (22:32). Ruth Lynch demonstrated a continued good vein of form to break 23 minutes and nudge herself in to third overall in the series

Next week we will know on Monday if the Moycullen course is suitable to race, If not we will make altenative arrangments. My thanks to Alma, Stephen and 'Shoeless Sam' for volunteering
