Kilcock man Conn McDunphy has won the Danny O’Shea Open 10 Mile TT promoted by Sorrento Cycling Club in Co Wikclow.
Now racing with CC Nogent-sur-Oise in France, McDunphy is home at present and put in a good time yesterday; clocking 20:19 on a day when the riders faced a stiff breeze.
McDunphy was 12 seconds up on runner-up Paul Kennedy (Foran CC), with Greg Swinand (Dan Morrissey-MIG-Pactimo) in 3rd at 28 seconds
After the race McDunphy took to twitter with his reaction “Finally won a bike race this year at the Danny O’Shea TT. Happy to be back going fast on my TT bike, now have all eyes on the remaining races with CC Nogent-sur-Oise. Thanks to my chauffeur Jennifer, now I can afford money for petrol”
