Connor Murphy (EuroCycles) and Greg Swinand (Usher IRC) attack shortly after the start and forge ahead to minute plus lead

Race leader Matt Higgins (Node 4 Giordana) is forced to take up the chase.


The bunch is under pressure


Murphy and Swinand have extended their lead.



Adam Armstrong (EuroCycles) shadows race leader Higgins



A day for the hard men


Murphy and Swinand are still away, Murphy is race leader on the road

Yellow Jersey Higgins team mates have succumbed to the weather, he's left to defend the lead himself

Ryan Sherlock (Iverk Produce Carrick Whs) seems happy enough

A rider to watch out for in the future!


Lakeland Wheelers to the fore

Still no assistance

Armstrong launches an attack with 3 laps to go

Higgins tries to hold Armstrong's wheel

2 laps to go, Sherlock has bridged the gap to Armstrong and both riders have passed Murphy and Swinand.... No sign of Higgins!

Ryan Sherlock takes the stage from a very happy Armstrong

A well deserved 3rd place to Darren Bell (Ellan Vannin IOM)
