The racing action this Thursday, 21st April, is Round One of the 5 Inter Club Road Race League hosted by the Lakeland Club at Fivemiletown starting at 7pm.

Meanwhile, the six man East Tyrone team of Jason Glasgow, Ivan Jeffers, Brian McComb, Melvin Steele, Alan Somerville and Lee Somerville took part in the Lakeland two-day Stage Race in County Fermanagh at the weekend.

The team rode strongly throughout what was a hard event including a mountain top finish on the final stage, placing a brilliant third overall in the team event.

Finally, Harvey Barnes’ frequent podium finishes continue unabated with an excellent second place in the A3 Event at the Bann Valley Classic - and arguably took his best A3/Junior win to date on Sunday in the the Coombes-Connor event in Drogheda, Co.Louth.
