A little bit in this over the years we finally got there hopefully we won’t go bankrupt now over next months but it’s true yeah you buy jerseys and um John’s able to gra away the money right back to our real news so this is our first show in a while our
Previous one was before Christmas it was and over the Christmas period we had the forementioned round five of the national series in MCR most important race that was ever held ever absolutely like you know in the Under 12 girls if a Campbell from Square Wheels H got the win ahead
Of Lily mcder and Lea cran from imbc yeah the crystals was it was Bleak and driving up there it was horrendous sorry I forgot about the like it was really really really bad and I think the under eights and 10 and tws got absolutely dous away they were with the poor poor
People it was loving to get back up to my cryst track though as well after last year’s National but on the Under 12 boys DK Quigley from foil CC took it again jack McAn was up there yet again for square wheels and um William Hanson Ora
New name I think is it yeah I think it is oh maybe once we’ve seen him before man will h e Craig not a new name got to win 14 girls from Katy Turner and Eva Baker Eva Baker We got a race it’s taking us two seasons we got a slap R to
Get about hello Mommy Baker um under 16 girls was uh yeah great race again uh um wish you nearly committed the ultimate full oh ulate for p he never skipped the best race SE sorry second best race of the weekend I am so nervous about getting onto the support race
That I actually forgot about the best race in the world on 14 boys yeah the highlight of the season the high and actually a few people have said it not just us it is an absolute cracker this time James took it James conningham from orell BET his AR Nemesis ow Davies and a
Newcomer Josh mclone from Team Madigan into third there is a cat amongst the pigeons and um we will talk further about half is red and half is red and he’s big so Josh MCL took a f fantastic uh third place coming back from injury so yeah good to see more competition is
Is absolutely great uh 116 girls uh we had Emer herent got the win ahead of miai and carot sing from sale yeah uh the horsepower went up I always say it and um I I I kept like New Jersey new teams it’s very very confusing to an old man
Like me and I I kept calling Curtis the wrong name the whole way around but um Curtis M took it for Spellman Dublin Port his new team uh he took a well head of James Armstrong and Caleb McGreevy from VC yeah and in the sport race here
There’s only one name mentioned it’s in B capitals ke Cal from P Carri wheeler but got win who’ you beat again who’s in second place well funnny enough there was it was the largest field uh that ever was interesting wow wow wow and the wrer in second he a real cut Edge modern
1982 um Canever is it Canever and his back breaks went as well yeah he didn’t have breaks in the first place that’s only keep you know uh but one of the funniest things was Martin uh face every time I I went over the line because he was just kind of going what
Are you doing up here you shouldn’t be up here but um yes race win and that’s it I’m retiring hasn’t got all like you know Aliah rafy wasn’t news for her she got to win in the women’s race had a gret Lawless and Duren Ken yeah she was
She was flying low in FA that was a great win again and the Masters Jean Wilson was um literally just a constant the whole R of the Season yeah um and somebody who really was flying low at that time as well was Kevin mccambridge yeah Kevin R out his time with Trac
Treny racing and the win Elite men from TY keen and Sean o from luk yeah I think Ty went deep the first two laps and what happens when you go deep the first two laps look for your race your race is probably two laps
Long and I think T had a little bit of an explosion but that’s all good that’s there’s nothing wrong with that uh Jun man Joseph Mullen from zappi got the win ahead of David gath me and Michael Collins yeah Ron mlyn did what Ronan Flynn does that sounds completely
Wrong no it wasn’t so Ron went on won the m40s uh no surprise from inspired Jason Henry took the m50s and guess who Johnny mcabe world champion uh took the took the I’m laughing because now Paul Bell has a perfect excuse cuz he can always say he’s bet by a world champion
No we’re not having that first loser yeah uh one thing we want to compliment is Barry Rogers of the big bubble hat crew he set up a good uh go fundme page there over Christmas to help support the B as was for racing next season for cyc
Cross so give it a link you probably seen it already give it a few quid more importantly yeah I’m going to have the link in comments um it’s really straightforward there’s no hidden agenda this is just somebody trying to do good for CX he’s at every race he’s great crack
Um and it’ll be wonderful to try and get some money uh because yeah it’ll go to the Riders and it’ll help him yeah absolutely or El go to massive stock of bigb of course you would the biggest bubbly hat in the world in the world
Yeah well on very fair play yeah um over the Christmas period as well some of the cying Ulster crew uh scarped over the water yeah and speaking of people helping out cycling oer off-road stepped up and um they got a good good crew together to go over to Belgium and um
John’s probably going to help me a little little bit better with some of the names but um on what the names are races ah right they went over and pissed themselves against the best in the world and against themselves and they actually did very well a learning experience yeah
Great far is they wrote a number of race there on Christmas period just the only way to get better is one right those uh they wrote an ANP or the solid rides from the three of them and gar as well which was the Lee World Cup Dean broke
His chain at start not a great with start race like you know but he finished 50 seconds like 0 rers or something like that like you know it’s insane 90 riders in start race zaler as well Zer of course I would love to ride looks incredible manic start at so many riders
Racing at Christmas time um Conor Murphy and Cameron Henry were over there as well both them did well crashes finished well down but Savage experience on M Maria even Maria ro ro as well like you know so qu see Champions Jersey in there I just think it’s wonderful to sit down
And kind of go well there’s that Jersey well there’s Darnell the thing that course that the full report back from the people there is just how tremendously difficult that course is TV does it no justice from steep climbs to tricky Des sense it’s all just brutal
And they also WR de de in the night race which looks like an absolutely cracking drinking session because uh yeah it’s it’s ch racing effectively and it just looks horrible I spent most of my time looking at the crowd to see was there any rounds breaking actually yeah no no no another
Stage these belies like the beers but uh it was an Absolut incredible Affair uh I think lots of bottoms got kicked but this is what this is all about there’s great uh footage on the UCI of Simon there’s an onboard Cam and his gas you can just see him going by Darnell you
Kind go oh there’s Darnell which is again I just get a kick out of this I think it’s fantastic you’re a race winner now as well was like k out these things like you know uh so Conor was 25th there Cameron was just not far
Behind him and in the elite wom we had Anya and rosi L as well did good rides and Darnell and Travis uh in the leag yeah exactly and speed speed speed that’s the the the feedback we got back on it meant to be absolutely incredible beer beer beerer and beer beer beer what
Was meant to be mud mud mud was the next one in l h where Conor wode an exceptional race finished seventh seventh I mean like just all the horses and all the power going down and we have to score Sho just absolutely incredible Cameron did very very I don’t think he
Was too far behind him but um that was horrible yes and on Ro also finished in the last on the last lap lead lap which is a great thing to do uh Dean had a few issues in the pits with his bikes but he finished uh 41st which is not too bad
Yeah little note which is come back to us so a little important thing about practice laps and there’s a very much A Love Affair between Dean Harvey and V for because anytime he seems go out for a practice lap Dean was directly behind but it’s cute because you get to watch
Him you get to see the lines you get to see everything else so I tried the same thing I tried to follow Dean as well you’re right away from him problem Fair he dropped me coming out the car park is not and you were driving which is the
Killer like you know it’s wonderful isn’t it it’s it’s good so fair play for going over there it’s the thing to do Christmas who needs Christmas at home when you can go to Belgium and points uh one other team we want to draw our attention to is our great friends
Seve Lucas I Club are holding a raffle for a bian bicycle two bian B oh class um and it’s incredible um and they are and I think it’s 10 as a ticket uh the raff I’m not going to give the days we’ll have all the details in the
Comments but it’s well worth it because like so many other clubs they give a huge amount and um yeah and our good friends Pi Cycles are helping with the bikes as well like so fair play to Paul and kich supp uh we’ll give you some credit I’m sure it’s coming out of your
Pocket so yeah get Bo take a great great great great clo what they do for the Youth is incredible uh so get in there and support it if you can draw is happening on the 19th of January as far as I know good man that’s the detail I couldn’t think of and I
Didn’t want to say okay uh this weekend we had round six of the national series and again it was Frosty it was cold sto lead Lads it was fog and it was brutal poor Mar L couldn’t get out of May with the whole place was shut up but it was
Great R yeah yeah fantastic venue our friends in war hosted it uh which felt really bizarre going into a f essentially just beside du I can’t get my head around that you’re literally in the city and then all of a sudden you’re in the field yeah F it’s just incredible
Yeah yeah H Lily mcder from TC racing was the first winner from the Under 12 girls she bet Lisa kinan and Amilia finigan from Square Wheels which is very very good Jack Gan good man Jack from Square Wheels took it from fabrian dwl all the way over from con and Max mcra
Uh from fermoy to third Max KY Turner H got the win in today and also one national series uh she bet Kira Conor from D wheelers and Kira Flavin from D Garin yeah fair play k um In fairness she’s absolutely Top Notch um now we spoke about this earlier the cat amongst
The big catch amongst the pigeons uh came and laid it down for the under 14s boys race yes Josh M from migan got the win he bet James Cunningham and on Davies so big surprise there it is big surprise absolutely the best race of the year is just getting better it’s just
Got better and just in time for the Nationals um and what’s absolutely fantastic as well as Kieran mulani yeah um so we before mentioned seve Luca took the actual League win as well but um and he was there with own for a good bit as well so a four battle maybe for the
Nationals and when we were leaving to come home Kier malani was still right around his kid so he six hours of training I don’t do that in a month respect yeah good man uh in under 16 girls another Kraken race which I think for the Nationals now would be fantastic
Em Herman got the win H for kenning CLE she got the win on the day and the league uh EO who’s massively press this year from D Garin was second miai from was third we we said it last year as well the these under 14s under 16s will
Give some of the best race and I think it’s going to happen again um the under 16 boys and um we had a new name well it’s not a new name anyway not a new name but I was surprised to be honest Ryan Daly pulled it out of the bag
Savage right um B James Armstrong kale mcre VC Glend Duo uh what r r absolutely Kracken ride AB I tried to go alongside James Armstrong one side on my mountain bike with the camera and I lasted about two me dropped me slow down J W well H
James Aron got the win in the league he took it away from Caleb mcy I think and Hugh o MN was in third yeah solid from James All Season and so we did sport race so did you win again ke no and I I
Have I I would like to say I’m a all fan of corruption U but once I’m involved you’re the inside looking out yes exactly because we we had um a supporter winner who looked very fit yeah un yeah unlike me uh Jean Sergio cusi from team work happened to be team
Work as well he stole it he was flown in for the weekend he was flown in from the weekend and I was robbed robbed robbed so you finished second then did you no I finished fourth oh okay so you robbed three times strange strange okay I rode
On the mountain bike and it was a good laugh uh I must admit but it was tough super super super tough one moment who didn’t find it to tough on her home ground literally uh gret L from team work well done she had a very convincing
Win in the women’s R race she bet aiyah rafy and on Dy yeah I think aah made one little slip up um and and and Greta took advantage but the two of them absolutely fantastic Ona Dy did very very well as well um aah rafy uh from Can Am I going
To get this wrong to 40 everyone is that the team she completely wrong I’d say but um she’s listen that’s a fantastic race and is going to be a fantastic race as well yeah qu was the first senior lady and she met D keen and dur took
Away the league overall she did uh Masters winner on the day was Jee Wilson and she was the overall League winner as well in the Masters yeah which is class well done all uh Dean Harvey unsurprisingly got the win in senior men’s Race So shaping up nicely for his
Defense of the national championships yeah Travis Harkness actually had a belter of R he did very very well and I still think the fact that Robin Seymour got turd and like he if he add up the ages and was driving Stakes before Stakes um but super impressed with
Travis Harkins I thought that was a great R Dean does what Dean does so he he he was absolutely incredible thank you very much to to Dean for letting us put a camera on him and we’re going to have some Youtube footage and and little things like that it’s wonderful to see
How it should be done yeah all and Well Done massive well done to Ty Keen from Kill Collin S Club he won the overall so for a young writer coming through and Series yeah uh in the Juniors then Conor Murphy uh did his usual uh debuted his new colors for C
Cycles he got the win ahead of Michael Collins from Newcastle and David Gaffney yeah he motored didn’t he yeah he was he was flying h i a great CP of the start of the junior race and how Michael Collins not crash into last I was
Already going this is the pile up I need for YouTube viral gold noer we have a lovely clip of Conor actually going by and he’s just kind of way he’s G you know uh David gy got the overall win there so well done to Davis M40 was a belter great race fantastic
Race I had a good race I was very happy oh sorryish 18 top 20 for John John respectability uh a little ahead of him were uh two people Glenn and Mark they bet the hell of each other yeah it was a very very very good race came down to
Probably the last lap last few Corners I would say even U where Glenn happened to pick Mark for the win but 40 is going to be a good category it’s going to be a hell of a good category yeah and Mark FL took the overall win there he did
Consistency again was very very good onto the m50s and um Alan Bingham begins to strut his stuff yeah sounded like cracken race as well very much um Alan came from behind a bit and uh he was inspired to get the win he was inspired to get L
There like again I we think that’s going to be an absolute cracker of a race U Ferg Regan uh took the overall win uh um but yeah there’s a gaggle of them there in the M50 and they’re going to be very very very close are yeah yeah One race
That won’t be close no offense to anyone else is m6s for Johnny MBE our world champion got the win uh won the league he’s going to win the national championship next week as well you know they nearly post out the medal to him at this stage he left me again he you sh
Would he is ripped he is so fish it’s ridic but Johnny did it which which is amazing and um yeah all the applauds for Johnny because he just deserves it so that wrapped up the national league I want to say Mass thanks to Martin Grimley without him this would actually
Not happen he keeps everything going every race so well done Martin fair play we’ve lost a pitcher somewhere in our move but you know they in our house the unflappable um uh the boss he’s he’s very good and um yeah yeah good one for that so next week is nationals week yeah
