Power Wins Stage 2 Lacey in Yellow
Pezula's Ciaran Power won the second Stage of this years Suir Valley 3 Day and Sean Lacey takes Yellow from Martin O'Loughlin. The race started with a break going clear after the hotspot in Cahir with Martin O'Loughlin missing the break. The Dan Morrissey team tried in vain to bring this break back and the bunch split futhermore on the climb of the Glen of Aherlow and its descent.
O'Loughlin now seperated from his team worked very hard in the second group to maintain his lead but alas after the 2nd KOM of the Day his lead had slipped and by the 3rd KOM he was 3 mins 30 down.
The front group worked well together with a lot of attacking in the latter stages but finished with Pezulas Ciaran Power taking the win.
