Irish Veteran Cyclists Association race results for season 2001

Sanyo Cup 2up TT - Batterstown
IVCA thanks Cyclesways for their generous sponsorship of this event.

     The final day for racing this year turned out a fine dry morning after a wet start. There was a good turnout and the event allowed for steady riding rather than the mad dash of an ordinary TT. Anybody with ideas about being fastest though had to keep the speed up all the way round. With some younger racers teaming up with Vets there was a few very good times. The fastest went to Jimmy Lally and Andrew Donnellan and the Sanyo Cup for the pair nearest their estimated time went to Brian Connaughton and John Ferry - pictured on right.
