Second spot for Conor Gallagher in Ulster Championships

GLENSWILLY cyclist Conor Gallagher finished second in yesterday’s Under-16 Ulster Cycle Cross Championships.

A magnificent performance saw Gallagher take the second spot at the Ecclesville Centre in Fintona. The event was hosted by Omagh Wheelers CC.

Errigal Cycling Club member Gallagher will now compete at next weekend’s National Cycle Cross Championships in Sligo.

In 2018 he represented Ireland at the Errigal International Youth Tour and won the Keeloges stage of that event while he was selected to ride for Ireland at the World Youth Tour in Austria last August.

A son of Charlie and Colette Gallagher, he was been consistent with his performances in recent events.

Another Errigal Cycling Club member, Donnachadh Roarty, came fifth in the Under-14 event.
