Four of Orwell's youngest members were out last night to fight for victory in the opening round of the Underage Interclub League - Killian O’Brien, Alice O’Brien, Andrew Ryan and Uisneach Sheridan.
With Killian O'Brien and Alice O'Brien competing against each other in the U10 category, it was Killian who came out on top in the time trial round, setting the fastest time for his age group! Alice was a terrific 3rd for the girls, and both put in solid performances in each of the CP races, with Killian's best result a brilliant 3rd in Race #2, and Alice a great 7th in the same event.
The two older lads likewise did excellently, with Uisneach Sheridan placing a fantastic 2nd in his TT, and Andrew Ryan a superb 3rd in the U12s. In the handicap races, the U12s and U14s were combined, and the duo came in neck and neck with 5th and 6th in Race #1. The second race saw Uisneach get the upper hand, and repeating his super 2nd, with Andrew a fine 5th.
Each rider should be proud of the rides they put in tonight, with great results all round! They'll be returning to the League with a grasstrack race next week.
