Strong Irish Squad selected for UCI Paracycling Road World Cup
Cycling Ireland today confirmed the Irish Squad for next weeks UCI Paracycling Road World Cup in Segovia, Spain from 8th to 13th June.
Current UCI World Track Silver medallist Catherine Walsh will have her new tandem pilot Francine Meehan on board for the Female Tandem time trial and road race. They will be joined in the Male Tandem race by Michael Delaney and pilot Con Collis and Andrew Fitzgerald and pilot Paul Giblin.
On the single bikes, Enda Smyth will compete in the C4 category and will be joined by newcomer Colin Lynch who is a lower limb amputee and will compete in the C3 category.
Handcyclists selected are, Mark Rohan (H1), David Kerr (H2) and Darrell Erwin (H2) who, in addition to their Road Race and Time Trial competitions will also compete in the new Team Relay Event.
Irish Paracycling Manager Denis Toomey pointed out the importance of this event. It is the first of only two road events in 2010 that will lead to countries gaining “Ranking Points” towards London 2012 qualification. The second will be the UCI Road World Championships in Canada in August. Ireland has the potential to secure one male and one female slot at the end of 2010 provided we finish high enough up the country rankings at 31st of December. It would be nice to have those slots in the bag and then build on that for 2011 said Toomey.
We wish the Irish squad continued success in next weeks World Cup.
