    For the Vets it depends on which category you are in. The top two groups would be a lot faster than A4.

    Still not sure what happened, didnt stay around to see.

    Anyway the race went fine, seen one familiar face so tucked in behind Burtie for first 2 laps, pushed into a really good spot with about 4km to go setting up the last corner, i was about 4th wheel feeling really strong, then a motor bike gardai showed up and turned it into a **** show.

    Had few people moaning about my lines in corners but in my defense from bmx racing and mountain biking i probably corner a bit more aggressively than some people like .

    Still all good, i had fears i was going to get dropped before the race , happy to get the first one done and dusted

    I had a good view. Basically towards end of race a garda bike passed the group in opposite direction at exact same time a rider w a green jersey was on wrong side of road on a blind bend. Cue the Garda doing a u-turn and bollocking the lead car, then neutralising race till literally just after the roundabout on the finishing straight w 400m to go. Complete mess of a finish but happy to stretch legs.
