Andy Maguire added to his National Criterium Championship with a emphatic win in the Leinster Road Race Championship this morning in Kilcullen Co.Kildare.
A strong field assembled for the Championship except for Dublin riders due to the Government travel restrictions. 0km into the race a group of 8 riders went clear of a very active bunch and quickly gained 2 minutes by the end of the first 42km lap. Chris Reilly Bohermeen CC was most active from the bunch in attempting to cross the break but the 8 man break worked well together all day to have more than 4min heading into the closing Kilometres. In the break Maguire had the assistance of his team mate Cian Keogh to take control of the break and at the finish Maguire was strongest at the finish with Fintan Ryan splitting the two Spellman – Dublin Port teammates for the 3 medal places.
