Fri 04 Apr 2003Irish look to amass points
CYCLING: The Irish Mountain-bike team will this weekend continue their campaign to amass the world ranking points necessary to ensure Olympic qualification when they line out in the Swisspower Cup E2 race.
Robin Seymour, Tarja Owens and Jenny McCauley have taken UCI points in each of the races they have contested, while Glen Kinning and Richie McCauley will be aiming to get their scoring under way after missing out in the early events. The riders must score well throughout the season to push their ranking to the level necessary to gain qualification for Athens 2004.
