The concurrently run Lightweight and Ultralightweight races saw an all Irish podium lockout lead by Andy Farrell from James Chawke and David Lumsden while the Ultrlightweight race was won by Darryl Tweed from Daniel Ingham and Alex Sinclair.
But I'm so well chuffed, and still smiling from ear to ear, for my mate Peter Moore finishing 9th (his highest ever MGP finish) in the Lightweight race as well as for my mates John Taubman, Alana Taubman, Liz Taubman and Michael Charnock of the TC Racing team who run and prepped and Peters bike. Oh roll on Friday and race 2
