Stuart makes it four in a row

The “ Branch dodgers “ enduro held on the Military and Coillte land at Kilworth , Cork last Sunday proved an excellent event by all accounts . A good entry , a good course ( thanks to Hughie O S , Paul MC , George and all their crew ) and a good test made for an enjoyable if tiring day . Four laps for Experts , seniors , three for Clubman and two for Sportsman made for a challenging day on the dry but technical route .

Enduro.ie take a bow …… we correctly predicted three of the four class winners and two of the runners up .

Charles Stuart ( Tm 250) continued his winning ways despite the entry of Stephen Smyth ( HVA) a fast former young MX rider forced out by injury now turned to enduro . Stuart was the only rider to dip below the 300 sec mark with three tests within 2 seconds of each other . Smyth was to just pip Dave Mc Nulty ( Beta) by 6 seconds , all on his last test . Richard Leonard ( HVA) showed a welcome return to form to fit into fourth . Old KDX rider , Shamie Hayes ( the bike not the rider) was outgunned this time finishing in 8 th .

DAVE mc Mahon ( KTM) again showed a clean pair of wheels in the Senior class , followed by Ger OGrady ( KTM) and a Sprightly ride to 3 rd by Ciaran Hayes( YAM) . Very impressive Ciaran ahead of paul Walsh ( Tm) and David Crean ( GG ) .

Jonathan Caldwell ( HVA) was the ringer in the Clubman putting in three impressive times to oust Anthony Kerins ( KTM) from the top spot . Michael Larkin ( KTM ) , JP RYAN ( Cr) followed home in third and fourth covered by 3 seconds .

Eddie Doolan ( KTM ) was king of the Sportsman some distance ahead of gavin Ryan ( KTM ) with Eoin MC Hugh ( HVA ) making up the podium . There was a few “ old” timers in this class so ( without naming them ) well done for completing the route .

The TORC clubs next event will be the Killavullen 2 day ….. not to be missed . Check with TORC for details .

The FaSTLANE Club have also informed us that their MOTO CiRCUS Charity event is on the 9/10 AUGUST .
