Hennessy ready to defend title in Fermoy

MICHAEL HENNESSY can keep the big prize at home when he lines up for the Silver Pail Grand Prix cycle race in Fermoy on Sunday.

After a superb performance in the Des Hanlon Classic, he was in the thick of the action in the Killorglin Credit Union Rás Mumhan last weekend and has high hopes.

So too will the likes of Micheal Concannon (Killorglin Credit Union) and the Lynch twins, Denis and Daniel, from Kanturk Credit Union CC, so this promises to be the most exciting race in years.
