Kerry Group Ras Mumhan Stage 2

Wim Bootman from the Midi Centre team in Holland won today’s 140 kilometre stage which finished after three different climbs on top of Molls Gap outside Kenmare. Bootman outsprinted Ryan Sherlock for the M.A.D team from Dublin with Kerry man Paul Griffin in third. Tim Barry from The Edge team in Cork was fourth. These four riders stayed clear of the chasing group of fourteen all the way to the finish. Barry takes the yellow jersey because of his efforts and he was definitely the star of the show today as he was involved in all the crucial moves. He now has a commanding lead of 3m 35s from the stage winner Bootman with Sean Lacey a team mate of Barry’s now third overall.

Tomorrow’s stage is another tough 142 kilometre trip around South Kerry starting and finishing in Waterville and taking in Valencia Island on the way.
