Our tue night summer club league starts in just over 3 weeks time on Tue May 1st
Up for grabs for club members is the title of League Champ and more importantly, the winners jersey :)

There is also a trophy for the leading non-member.!
This was very popular last year with about 120 riders taking part over the course of the league.

The format is as usual 3 laps of our short course, about 10km in total with handicapped start times. This year we will be running only 10/11 rounds (tbc) with the best 8 rounds counting. The league will finish up before the XC Nationals in July.
The league is open to all IMBRC members, members of other clubs and Cycling Ireland license holders.
There will be an online sign on-form sent out in the next week.

Thanks to Paul and Joe for doing the timing in the worst conditions and missing out on all that nice muck & slop!!
-
:) thanks lads .. that was brilliant tonight.. love the new section.. the bridge is cool

Glad you all enjoyed the muck and pain ;)
Joe still got to race after he finished as race starter, and we deducted his delay from his start time. So you may notice hes moved up the results.
Results are posted now.

The league table (http://imbrc.com/forum/index.php?topic=2082.0) has been updated..
Jim takes over the lead this week from Kevin who has led from week 1, im up to 2nd place with Craig moving up to 3rd.
Top non-member is David Concannon (Naas cc) followed by Cian Mulligan (Epic) and Colm O'Reilly (MAD)
Remember its the best 8 rounds that count towards the overall, so if you do all rounds you'll loose your 2 worst scores near the end.

Well done to Ian on the getting the champs jersey, well deserved, It was pretty tight at the end and not so easily won, great stuff. Also well done to Kevin and Anto too to snatch those final positions, again well deserved.
