Covey Wheelers Club League Final Round
The Covey Wheelers Club League had its final round on the Leenane road on Wed night, a Time Trial was the event to round off the league and it also gave the league a lot of bite in the final round.
Who was going to take the overall, was it Damien Gannon who has held the lead in the league for many weeks or Pat Joe O’Connell, the dark horse who has held second position over many weeks.
The winner would be the one who improved his or her time from the first Time Trial way back in March on the same course, and as the event went on it looked like an upset was on the cards, first back was under 14 Damien Gannon who put in a a great time of 29.17 an improvement of 1.48 so it was now up to Pat Joe O’Connell and sure enough he done a time of 28. 49 a massive improvement of 6.07 giving him the overall win in the League.
