Stephen Irwin (North Lancs Road Club) took victory by over a minute in the Congleton CC 50 around the leafy lanes of Cheshire.

Irwin backed up his eight place at the National 25 last week with another victory to add to his tally on more familiar roads clocking a winning time of one hour 44 minutes and 30 seconds.

The course which is not known for its fast times due to numerous junctions and country lanes proved a test for riders once again.

Irwin remarkable clocked the exact winning time as Charles Taylor (Team Bottrill) did when the course was used last month during the Cheshire Roads Club 50.

And it was Taylor who followed Irwin home on this occasion clocking over a minute slower than last month in a time of 1:45.39.

The two were well clear of the rest of the field with Ian Holbrook (Stone Wheelers) coming home in third with a time of 1:50.12.
