Daire Feeley has won the final stage of Rás Mhaigh Eo, claiming the victory today in the race leader’s jersey.
The Roscommon rider took the race lead
in yesterday afternoon’s stage 2 TT after he and EvoPro Racing team mate
Mitchell McLaughlin had attacked the breakaway during the morning stage and
gained time on it.
While McLaughlin won that opening stage from Feeley, the afternoon TT yesterday saw McLaughlin lose time and so Feeley moved into the race lead. And today on the final stage of the two-day race Feeley defended the race lead in the best possible way, by winning the stage.
