Castleconnell Wild Water Race Results

Click here for the results for the Castleconnell WWR race. There was some excellent racing with some dead heats in both the sprint and classic event!
Many thanks to those who came and supported the races and a very special thanks to Alan Dooley for organising the event, including arranging the flood, gaining clearance from the necessary bodies and ensuring government permission to run the event, etc - there is an awful lot of behind the scenes work required to enable this event to run every year.
The next race is on the Mourne on the 7th of December hope to see you there.
