All-Ireland Cyclo-cross League #3

Kilcullen, Co. Kildare, November 8, 2003

McSorley takes round three

By Shane Stokes

Apollo CC rider Peter McSorley successfully held league leader Roger Aiken (Banbridge CC) and the rest of the scratch group at bay to win the third round of Cycling Ireland's Cross League in Kilcullen last weekend, crossing the line 18 seconds clear of the next rider.

McSorley had been the last to resist Aiken's furious chase in the second round of the league but this time the eighteen year old's efforts were enough to net the win. Indeed, the Banbridge rider was unable to close the gap to those who started six minutes ahead, eventually finishing sixth. Despite this, Aiken continues to lead the league by a comfortable margin. Second in Kilcullen was Banbridge's William Mulligan, who finished 18 seconds behind McSorley.

The next race in the series will take place this Saturday in Banbridge, starting at noon.
