Apologies for the lack of results recently – I was away on holiday.
At the club road race in Carrowdore on 19th July, Ricky Topping (Ards CC), took the win from Mark Kane (Northern Dave Kane) and David Hamilton (North Down CC). Johnny Webb (North Down CC) was fourth, followed by Gareth Murray (Ards CC) and Ian Inglis (Black Rose).
At Orlock this evening, Ricky again took the win, followed this time by Noel Boyce (North Down) and David Hamilton (North Down). Johnny Webb (North Down CC) was fourth, followed by Robin Wilson (Ards CC) and Ian McClure (Northern Dave Kane).
The top six Ards riders in each race are shown in the overall standings table below. Ricky has jumped into the lead, but with a rider’s best 4 results counting to the club road race trophy Gareth can still catch him in the final race.

Thanks as always to the marshals, time keepers and judges, and to any other road users who may have been slightly delayed – your patience is much appreciated.
