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) |
