Glenswilly brothers and cyclists Cathal and Conor Gallagher will travel to England for competition with Irish teams over the next two weekends.

The Gallagher brothers were in Mayo last weekend for the Ras Mhaigh Eo.

Cathal finished sixth in stage one, the road race, second in stage two, a time trial, and third on stage three, again a road race.

Conor was second on all three stages and missed out on a win in the time trial by two hundredths of a second.
