Round 2 – Ulster Cyclo-cross series – Cancelled

Posted on 10/10/2020 by Secretary

Apollo Committee decided last night to cancel this weekend’s cyclocross race in Lurgan Park. The Committee deeply regrets having to make this decision and so close to the event, but due to circumstances regarding Covid-19, it was felt it wasn’t the best decision to continue with the race. Thank you so much to the people who offered their time to help out at the race, and we apologise to all the racers. We hope you understand. Stay safe Apollo committee.

All entries will be refunded
