I am (if everyone doesn't know by now) at a wedding in about 12 hours, so a report will not be forthcoming any time soon. In brief, Colum rode a savage ride solo for most of the race, taking a fantastic maiden win!

For the overall, well done to Eric! I don't have a list of final placings yet, but will publish them when I do.

In the meantime, I'd personally and on behalf of the club, like say a huge thank you to Damien Long and Eddie Lane for making sure the league ran smoothly week in and week out! To Ciara Kinch for keeping track of all the results, and ably assisting the two lads. To Dick O'Brien and Paul Tansey for their work in running a number of races throughout the league, and to Jeni Sheridan for the same, and cooking up a storm at the barbecue tonight! Dave Mc also deserves a mention for helping out and lending his wisdom when needed, tip of the helmet to him.

To all the riders who cam out to compete, and for your marshalling, to the friends and family who came out and cheered on, or those who supported from home, thank you! You made the inaugural Orwell League a huge success!

Now I'd better go to bed, because I did promise the bride I'd only have the one pint and then go home, and that's not quite what happened. Curse you peer pressure, curse yooouuu!!

Final results are on the front page now.
