A more-affected class carries a lower percentage, which credits the greater impact of the impairment.Example: Richael Timothy rode an actual 50:59.95 at 88.78% a factored 45:16.62, beating Heather Jamesons faster actual 52:54.17 at 86.13% 45:33.91.In the Para cards below: large time = factored time (sets the placing).

In MemoriamIrish cycling mourns Shane OBrien2009 2026Irish cycling is in mourning following the death of Shane OBrien, one of the brightest young talents this country has produced in a generation, who has been taken from us at the age of just 16.No list of results can hold what Shane was on a bike. But for those who only got to see him race, the results at least point to it. A Fermoy boy through and through, he learned his trade at Fermoy Cycling Club the same club, the same roads, that shaped his older brother Liam before stepping up to ride for CAMS Majaco this season.He announced himself last autumn in the kind of way that gets people talking in club car parks for weeks afterwards. A first-year junior, barely up from the U16s and riding his very first cyclocross races, he won the junior mens event at the opening round of the National Cyclocross Series at Falls Park in Belfast. That alone would have been a fine days work. What made hardened observers sit up was the clock: Shane put in the two fastest laps of the entire day across every category the senior mens race included and held lap times that matched or bettered the best seniors on the course, even with the older men racing more laps. First season at the level, going toe to toe on the watch with established names. You dont see that often. When you do, you remember the name.And he was no flash in the pan. On a treacherous, icy circuit at the closing round of the series, a couple of small slips cost him a place on the days podium but he dug in, crossed the line within seconds of third, and did just enough to take the overall National Series title. A national champions jersey in his debut cyclocross campaign as a junior. That tells you as much about his head as his engine.The road season carried the same steepening curve. Settling in quickly at CAMS Majaco, he picked up two podiums in National Single Grade racing and went abroad with his team to test himself against the best. He held his own against C1-level fields, taking second in the Lacey Cup and third in the John Drumm Cup, and lined up at Rs Mumhan as he stepped into the senior bunch.That body of work earned him the jersey every Irish rider dreams of. Only last month, Shane pulled on the green of Ireland for the first time on the road, making his international debut at the Course de la Paix Juniors in the Czech Republic one of the most prestigious junior stage races on the calendar. National team coach Martyn Irvine had named him among a group of debutants precisely because of the promise hed shown all season long. He had every right to be there.He was, as so many in the bunch will tell you, well known and well loved and a rider of real, rising promise. The OBriens are one of the most gifted cycling families in the country: Shane and his brother Liam, now a professional with Lidl-Trek Future Racing, both products of Fermoy CC and that tight, generous cycling community in North Cork that turns up in the rain, year after year, to make riders like these.Shane OBrien died on Tuesday following a collision while out training in Co Waterford. He was 16.Everyone here at ICN extends our deepest sympathy to Shanes parents, to Liam and Aidan, and to all his friends, teammates and coaches at Fermoy Cycling Club, at CAMS Majaco, and across the Irish national setup. The roads will feel emptier for a long while. A talent, and a young man, taken far too soon.Ar dheis D go raibh a anam.

On June 14th Limerick Racecourse hosted the Shanahans Family Foods Raceday Greenmount Cycling Academys first raceday of 2026 at their home base.Action began at 10am with the U8 and U10 race for boys and girls. These are the stars of the future. The weather was warm with a light breeze on the 2km oval track.After the youth races on the Ambulance track, racing moved on to a second course on the 600m hilly Horsebox carpark lap. The U12s, U14s and U16s took part in elimination races that were the highlight of the day.In the combined C1/C2/C3 handicap race at 2pm, all the categories were spread over one lap at the start, with Stephen Gilman (OLeary Stone) fresh from winning two C3 races in the last week trying in vain to gain a lap on the C1s. The race came together at the halfway point, with the inevitable Paul Kennedy (Burren CC) attack taking him clear. Behind, Mike Storan (West Clare CC), Keith Walsh (Greenmount CA) and Daniel Lynch (OLeary Stone) broke free but were reeled in with 6 laps to go.Arnaud Dumoulin (OLeary Stone CC) then escaped the bunch with 4 laps to go and, while he was almost caught over the final laps, he powered ahead to seal 2nd place. A bunch sprint followed, with Keith Walsh just piping Stephen Gilman for 3rd.Massive thanks to all the parents, supporters, officials and riders for making it a successful days racing Michael and Toms on Commissaire duty, Niall and the Limerick Red Cross keeping everyone safe, Sharon and Eoin on sign-on, and Ed taking results.C1-3C1/C2/C3 Combined 50 mins + 3 laps1Paul KENNEDYBurren CC2Arnaud DUMOULINOLeary Stone CC3Keith WALSHGreenmount CA4Stephen GILMANOLeary Stone Kanturk5Daniel LYNCHOLeary Stone Kanturk6Bruno COPPOLAGreenmount CAC2Jarlath HASSETT (1st unplaced C2)Burren CCM40Sean CONROY (1st M40)Greenmount CAM50Anthony TESTA (1st M50)Gaeltacht CCRider in actionU16BU16 Boys 10 laps1Ethan REALSliabh Luachra CC2Conor LYNCHSliabh Luachra CC3Darragh COLLINSNewcastlewest CCElimConor LYNCH (Elimination winner)Sliabh Luachra CCU16GU16 Girls 10 laps1Ciara FLAVINDungarvan CC2Jennifer CONDONOLeary Stone Kanturk CCU14BU14 Boys 5 laps1Anthony FOLEY DORANCarlow RC2Conor COXSliabh Luachra CC3Donnacha HYNESTuam CCElimConor COX (Elimination winner)Sliabh Luachra CCU14GU14 Girls 5 laps1Laura CONDONOLeary Stone Kanturk CCRiders ready for actionU12BU12 Boys 3 laps1Rian FLAVINDungarvan CC2Dylan QUEALLYGreenmount CA3Albert MATEI TODORGreenmount CAElimRian FLAVIN (Elimination winner)Dungarvan CCU12GU12 Girls 3 laps1Caroline COLLINSSliabh Luachra CC2Sophia QUIGLEYWaterford RC3Emily OMAHONEYSliabh Luachra CC
