Ynys Mon Island Cycling Team - Event 1

Local rider Meirion Davies (Energy Cycles) scored an epic solo victory in the inaugural Ynys Môn Island Games Cycling Team series event, sponsored by Anglesey Aluminium and Tyn Lôn Volvo. Despite the harsh weather conditions on Wednesday evening there was a strong line up of riders in Llangefni to face two laps of an undulating 14 mile course around the centre of Anglesey.

 

The lead car provided by Elim Peugeot Cars of Llangefni was kept busy during the first five miles as a number of riders made attempts to break clear of the bunch. Eventually the race winning move went clear of the bunch on the climb out of Llanerch-y-medd, and as it contained all of the strongest riders, it was clear that the winner would come from this group.

 

The victor made his winning move on the final lap near Trefor, with three miles remaining and was strong enough to hold off the rest of the break to win by 9 seconds from John Harvey (Rhos-on-Sea CC) with Chris Purt (Energy Cycles) in third place.

 

The next event will be held on Wednesday 14th May, with signing on from 6pm at Plas Arthur Leisure Centre in Llangefni or phone organiser Dewi Jones on 07733 121585 for further details.

Cancellation

The Denbigh Road Race due to have taken place at Llandyrnog on Sunday April 6th was cancelled after a course inspection, the driving snow showers were dangerous in themselves but Region Secretary Richard Lang and Organiser Keith Jones decided that black ice on sections of the course where it passed under trees made it too risky for a race. The recent tragedy involving the Rhyl C.C in icy conditions no doubt played a big part in the their decision
