Ballymena Road Club – Chain Reaction Cycles – hope to finally hold their Sam McQuigg cup 50 miles time trial this Saturday morning at 7am.The twice postponed event will take place from Woodgreen, from where the entrants will race between the Dunsilly and Ballee roundabouts.The McQuigg cup is awarded to the winner of the handicap section, but the event is also important for three other season long competitions.The senior time trial best all rounder championship requires riders to register qualifying times at 10 miles 25 miles and 50 miles. The veterans’ age standard championship, for the Henderson cup, has the same requirements. The third competition which will be decided on Saturday morning is the time trial handicap league. So it’s all to race for come 7am, let’s hope its third time lucky and the race finally gets to take place.
