Below are the riders who placed Top 5 in their respective categories in the 2009 XC NPS, who will be receiving their awards at the 2009 National Points Series Prize giving ceremony.

Additionally – special recognition trophies will be awarded will be presented to the following Sports riders (note that Sports category was not included in the overall league awards):

David Hickey (u/a) and Paul Barry (IMBRC) for their dedication in racing at all 7 events in 2009, and also to Mark McGauley (MADMTB) for his self-promotion from Sports after winning NPS Rnd.1 and his subsequent performance in Masters category where he improved on nearly every previous race result.
It is expected that riders who have performed well and gained experience in racing the Sports category in 2009 will proceed to enjoy racing in their various age categories in 2010 and subsequent years.

Congratulations to those riders for their excellent performances and big thanks to all riders for continuing to support the XC NPS. Looking forward to seeing you (and of course new bikers too!) racing in 2010.

Regards
Cycling Ireland Offroad Commission.
