nice tart

ectasy and agony




sligo rider richie mc loughlin took his first road race win yesterday at the killalane roadrace in north county dublin,his riding was wonderfully smooth and after taking the lead on the third lap managed to pull out a lead before taking the flag.I am delighted i was there to watch it and was on a high for the day afterwards. sadly on the way home we got the news on the radio that a rider had lost his life in the 600 race which was red flagged during the day,rest in peace Victor Gilmore thanks for the racing memories
