02/05/2013 Spires TT Trilogy Round 1
The first of the Spires Trilogy TT’s took place tonight on a very windy Toome course.
Thirty Six testers lined up on what turned out to be a difficult night with a strong head wind on the outward 5 and not a great advantage on the way back. Despite the conditions some fantastic times were set with only 3 seconds between Stuart Bennett (Phoenix CC) in first place and Matthew Heaney (Clann Eireann) in second, being the only 2 testers to go below 22 minutes.
Stephen Harkens (Team Madigan) set a good time in third.… Read more

27/04/13 Super Six Rd 1 Omagh Rd
Not many people like to ride a time trial twice, the body on fire sensations, particularly for the first event of the year, aren’t particularly pleasant, but when John Madden had an issue fitting his rear wheel, started his event and watched his minute man ride off into the distance, something was wrong. The answer came apparent at the turn when his rear tub went pop having rubbed his brake blocks for 3 1/2 miles at a very high wattage.
However James McLaughlin, not wanting to see him get off so lightly, threw him his car keys and told him he could restart.… Read more

23/09/2012 – Ulster 100m TT Championships – Woodgreen
Madden Smashes 100 Record - Yes – he’s back and with a bang. After a year of recovering from injury John Madden of Curran Racing ate up the 100 miles at Woodgreen in the Ulster Championships today in a time of 3:45:05 .
This is a new Irish record (subject to ratification) by almost six minutes. In 2010 it was Cuchullain man, Bryan McCrystal who broke Rory Wyleys’s record by a mere one second in a time of 3.51.01.
The weather was kind to the riders today with the sun coming out and becoming quite warm.… Read more

15/09/12 Ernie Magwood Super Six TT Report & Results
Marcus Christie was a welcome returning face to the Ernie Magwood Memorial Super Six TT league which took place on Saturday morning at Toome. Marcus has been in crushing form since he returned home, winning at will both the Ulster 10 & 25 titles within the last few weeks. When he arrived on Saturday morning, the other riders all knew they had their work cut out to try and take the fight to him. In the end we were miles off! Marcus has improved week on week and he clocked a super time of 20:11 winning by a clear 71s, maybe next year we will see Marcus go head to head with 2011 and 2012 champion, the absent, undefeated John Heverin a few times?… Read more
