That was a fantastic ride by Irvine. I've also been watching him for a while, thinking what an awesome lone battler representing a country that has no velodrome. Great result.

I'm guessing Manchester.If so, it reminds of a young Mark Cav catching the ferry over with his bike and a bag of kit from the IoM, to race. Chapeau
Either going to, in one or just off a plane!
Cycling Ireland's head coach Brian Nugent told BBC Sport "We have no track training facility in Ireland and our budget is extremely small."Everyone has been asking the same question: 'How has Martyn done it with no velodrome in Ireland?'"But he is a committed guy with a committed team and we have got a good coach in Andy who works with us in Majorca."What we do is base our best riders over there during the track season. Then they can do their work on the road and use the world championship track in Palma. Martyn is a road professional in the summer so he does all his track work in Palma. That is his level of commitment."
What a great cycling pundit Joanna Rowsell was on today's programme.
