Date: Sunday 29 August 2004
Event: Ulster MTB Round
Location: Big Wood
Host club: Apollo CT
On Sunday, 29th August, Apollo CT, successfully promoted once again a round of the Ulster MTB league outside Newry at Narrowwater on a new course which included over a km of fresh, unridden, single track and a new obstacle of a house! This all made for exciting racing.
There was a great turn out from all over Ireland which made the hard work seem worth while and even the clouds were kind to the riders. T
Three great tussles set the day for the win in the elite race, masters races and the vets Winner, Knud Jensen, swapped places 6 times on the last lap with Willie Mulligan. It was nail-biting racing which was appreciated by the crowd.
