In the latest leg of his European Championships campaign, Limerick’s Oisin O’Callaghan was in action in Spicak, Czech Republic over the weekend claiming a superb first place finish.
This season the bigger races, tracks and venues have all helped O’Callaghan gain invaluable experience which has translated directly into improved raceday performances.
In Saturday’s qualifying session, a crash cost the Limerick racer a few vital seconds by his time was still good enough to secure the fastest run making sure he would be the last man off the start gate on Sunday.
Early morning practice on Sunday was followed up with some food and a quick turnaround to prepare the bike for action.
O’Callaghan turned in a solid run and even though not perfect it was still enough for him to take the win with 7.8 secs to spare over his nearest competitor.
Even more but impressive was that his time was good enough for 2nd place in Pro U19 and 18th in Elites.
