Title: IMBRC 2013 Club Champs
Post by: Paul on October 13, 2013, 08:55:23 PM
Big thanks to everyone who came out today for some deadly racing and craic..!  :) The course was in great nick with a little bit of rain over night to keep the dust down and providing a few slippy moments for the riders.!  ;D

Great supports along too making it an increasing family day out and providing a great athmosphere in the paddock with the chearing and the cowbells.

Thanks to Leo & Cora Mcgarr for the use of the yard for parking/bike wash. And the Kilteel inn for post race venue.

Well done to Colm Keane on a great race from the back coming through the field to be crowned 2013 Club Champ.!  8)
Also Colin and Ger coming in 2nd & 3rd place.

In the guest category, great performance by Daniel Brickenden also starting from near the back and coming through to win the race overall and 1st place guest. 2nd was another young savage David Conroy with Chris Mollaghan finishing 3rd.

Special mention to Gareth Hegarty as the leading junior and to Orla & Aine as the only 2 ladies racing today  :)

Roll on next year.

Congrats Colm on a well controlled race, thoroughly deserved, chapeau  ;)! Get on Facebook though eh ::)!? Weirdo :D . Well done Ger also. Just when I thought I could relax halfway through the last forest section you barrelled into it so I had to HTFU to the finish line!

Fair play Paul, you should have got an award too. There at every race this year, rain or shine (though it was more shine this year!), even down at BH at the Marathon Champs.

Cheers to Leo for the parking,  it was nice to know we would be able to drive home with our car windows in tact.

Last but not least....how about that support for our club riders on the loop!!!??? Pawel & Co. at the top of that Kicker (he didn't actually have a megaphone!?), Leo's wife in the last forest, Paul and all the club lads at the start finish, brilliant. That sort of support gives ye something energy gels can't! ADRENALINE!

See y'all at the Enduro day for Whitewater!

P.s. the chips & sausages were a lifesaver at the Kilteel pub, good call.
