Eoin McCarthy - Life Behind Bars: RVV U23
http://eoinmccarthycycling.blogspot.com/2015/04/rvv-u23.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. The Ronde van Vlaanderen voor Beloften. I've started three times, had a DNF in my first attempt, finished my second and came crashing down and ending up in hospital in my third. It was on the Kattenberg just outside Oudenaarde, a downhill sector of cobblestones that comes just after the Holleweg sector. About five minutes before we hit Holleweg it started to piss down with rain, you could see most guys race was immediately over, and I knew that shit was going to hit the fan - ...

Eoin McCarthy - Life Behind Bars: February 2015
http://eoinmccarthycycling.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Eoin McCarthy about his first races:. To say my first races with "An Post-Chain Reaction" have been "eventful" would be a huge understatement. They have been quite a shock to the system! Every year it has taken me the first few races to fine-tune my condition and this year is no different. I've had a good winter of training preparing for the season, but you can never compare training to racing! Tomorrow is another day. To try again and learn more. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Eoin McCarthy - Life Behind Bars: March 2015
http://eoinmccarthycycling.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 19, 2015. Last time I was writing about my adventures on a bicycle, I was in a hotel room in France at Etoille de Besseges UCI 2.1, trying desperately to concentrate whilst listening to my room mate Maessie’s music and recovering from a hectic first stage. Now I am sitting in Belgium, half of my body ripped to shreds and an ankle swollen like a balloon! This sure is an interesting lifestyle I am leading. However, it could be worse - it could be raining! Once the flag dropped at kilometre ...

Eoin McCarthy - Life Behind Bars: June 2014
http://eoinmccarthycycling.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 16, 2014. The An Post Ras 2014. Now I’ve had plenty of time to reflect on my race, I would like to put some words to it. So here’s my recap on the Ras and the weeks around it. Myself, Robert and David at the depart in Dunboyne. I can’t even compare this years race with my 2013 campaign, this time I could actually compete. Being able to eat sure does help! Last year I had a gastro bug before, during and after. It really wiped me out! Things could have only went better from there…. The thing t...

Eoin McCarthy - Life Behind Bars: July 2014
http://eoinmccarthycycling.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 24, 2014. Luck of the Irish. After Savoie and Oetingen I travelled home to Ireland to race my National Road Race Championships. I always love riding the Nationals and spending the weekend in Ireland, but the race itself hasn’t ever been too kind to me! This year I was ready to change my luck…. I had great legs, and raced strongly but I misjudged my tactics. I wasn't the only one however! It was the perfect preparation race before Switzerland. The morning of Niuewsblad I opened the curt...

Wednesday, April 8, 2015. I am back in business! It’s been around 3 weeks since I crashed at Omloop het Waasland, and I have been back in Belgium for a week or so already. It has been an eventful week as we had our team/press launch in Gent, and I have been back training on the road again. I was getting quite fond of the turbo however…. not! I can’t wait to start racing again. Through the past few weeks my motivation has remained high as when I touched down at OHW I was starting to feel really ...Big res...

Eoin McCarthy - Life Behind Bars: December 2014
http://eoinmccarthycycling.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 21, 2014. I thoroughly enjoyed my off season this year. I spent most of my time chilling out while catching up with family and friends. I enjoying some down time whilst not thinking about the bike and fully replenished myself both physically and mentally. For my 21st birthday I got the best present imaginable from my mother, who I dearly love! Here's a quick video from the night:. My winter so far, touch wood, has been great. I just seem to be ticking the boxes and enjoying myself wh...
