Leah Maunsell crowned Irish National champion in Enduro Mountain Biking – for the 8th year in a row

Killavullen lady Leah Maunsell is celebrating having been crowned Irish National champion in Enduro Mountain Biking not just for 2022, but for the 8th year in a row!

The 23-year-old won her first title at the age of 14, and has remained unbeaten since. She achieved her most recent win, the Irish National Champion title, in Ravensdale, Co Louth earlier this month.

She followed this up last weekend, narrowly missing out on victory in the Irish National Downhill Championships, and a double, by a mere 0.253 of a second. 

Leah cycles with Team Ballyhoura and beat close rival Maeve Baxter for her eighth title win.
