An early start for yours truly to get in time for the first race of 5 at the Lucan GP held in Corkagh Park, an enjoyable drive from the North to the outskirts of Dublin in Clondalkin. Meet and greet and the entrance, checking temperature for each entry into the park, spectators not allowed inside the grounds, and only the volunteers and officials on the circuit allowed, it felt weird but a necessary evil in times like this…Mask mandatory for all, excluding just the competitors at warm-up and the actual race…A mask also required for the podium presentation, no one complaint or moaned…we al realise this is the only way to keep our beloved sport on the rails. Thanks, Lucan CRC and Stagg Cycles for an excellent day of fast racing, safe execution of procedures, and the warm welcome I had..worth the drive to the fair city
