Cameron Henry (Inspired Cycling) and Darcey Harkness (VC Glendale) have both gotten off to a flying start in the men's and women's events at the Newry Wheelers Three Day this evening

First-year junior Henry (17) took his last win on the uphill finish at the Bob Crilly Classic just last weekend and this evening showed his versatility by having too much power in the drag race to the line in the Newry Wheelers promotion.

Henry was victorious ahead of Paul Kennedy (AHC Racing) with another top quality first-year junior, Toby Sweetman (VC Glendale) rounding out the podium on the night.

In the women's race, international rider Harkness took the opening stage, and the first leader's jersey of the race in the same fashion; best in the sprint to win it convincingly.

Harkness won the 57.89km circuit race from first-year junior Aliyah Rafferty (Tofauti Everyone Active) and Abi Conway (Westport Covey Wheelers CC)
