Final Countdown To Start Of FBD Rás
 |
| Rob Partridge |
Just one day remains to the start of the 2010 FBD Insurance RÁS and teams from Germany, Belgium, Australia, Sweden, New Zealand, Austria, Japan, Spain, Britain, Wales, USA and the Isle of Man are arriving in Dublin to take on the Irish National Team, an Ireland Development Team, and seventeen county teams in what promises to be a thrilling, highly competitive eight days cycle racing around Ireland.
Dunboyne in county Meath will be a hive of activity this Sunday morning as the 170 riders line-up for the start of the gruelling 1219 kilometres which will bring the huge field to stage finishes in Dundalk, Oughterard, Tipperary, Seskin Hill, Gorey, Kilcullen and the now traditional tremendous finish in the seaside town of Skerries.
Irish hopes will centre around the Team Ireland Subway selection of Neil Delahaye, Simon Williams, Mark McKinley, Conor McAllistair and 2010 Tour of Ulster winner Adam Armstrong, as well as the home riders on the An Post Grant Thornton M. Donnelly Sean Kelly team. These are David O’Loughlin, who won a stage back in 2004, the last time the race went up Seskin Hill, former yellow jersey holder Mark Cassidy and 21 year old Connor McConvey, who has had a very encouraging season after switching from mountainbike to road racing. They will be joined by the Liverpool rider Mark McNally and Belgium’s Pieter Ghyllebert. More>>

19 Year Old Philip Lavery Takes On Top Pros In FBD Rás
 |
| Philip Lavery Murphy & Gunn |
One of Ireland’s most promising young racing cyclists, Philip Lavery, has confirmed he will be in the line-up when the FBD RÁS 8 Day International Cycle Race gets underway from Dunboyne this Sunday. Lavery’s decision means he’ll join the Dublin Murphy & Gunn/Newlynn team in taking on top-class teams from Germany, Belgium, Australia, Sweden, New Zealand, Austria, Japan, Spain, Britain, Wales, USA and the IOM.
There was some doubt about the 19 year old’s participation in the FBD RÁS as he is due to take part in the Under 23 Nations Cup in Canada shortly after the big Irish race finishes but he obviously feels he has the form and the maturity to cope with both.
Lavery’s been competing this year with the Look Academy team in Belgium, as well as doing some short stints back home in Ireland. In March he won the Kruiseke- Wervik race in Belgium and placed 35th in the ZLM Tour Under 23 Nations Cup event, being part of the group sprinting for tenth place at the finish. Two weeks later, he won a stage and placed third overall in the Tour of Ulster, then earlier this month he was a superb second behind double FBD RÁS champion Briton Chris Newton in the Lincoln Grand Prix in England.
