CYCLISTS TAKE ON DUNDROD CHALLENGE

North Down Cycling Club’s racing members will head for the Dundrod circuit of the famous Ulster Grand Prix on Saturday to take part in two cycle races which are being staged as a preliminary attraction before the main business of the day.

Though based in Dublin the core of the team are Ulster based riders, including Irish international Adam Armstrong ,Connor Murphy, who has won the event twice in recent years, Frazer Duncan and Thomas Martin.
