We also had Isabel Cogan selected for Leinster, while former members Anne Dalton and Lydia Boylan were riding for Ireland.

The penultimate round of the Wheelworx Orwell Ladies Crit League was held at Corkagh Park last night. To spice up the action the races were run as Points races, with riders collecting points in a sprint every second lap. It was Bray Wheelers' Michelle Carter and Orwell's own Trish Buckley who amassed the most points in each race, and each climbed the division tables as a result - Buckley to silver, and Carter to take the lead.
