Fay for Tour of New Zealand

By Shane Stokes

Jenny Fay has been racing for the past couple of months in Australia and despite her relative lack of international experience, the Irishwoman rode solidly in the Geelong Women’s Tour last week. She was 28th and 22nd on the first and last stages and finished 59th overall.

Fay was unable to do Saturday’s Geelong World Cup race due to UCI regulations relating to riders guesting on mixed teams. Instead, she will compete in the Tour of New Zealand for the Infinity Solutions team, alongside Sophie Ruderman, Cath Hare and Peta Mullens. The 2.2 ranked race runs from March 7 – 11.

In recent years she has competed with the Dublin-based Dundrum Orwell SC team, but in 2007 Fay will race with the Rapha Condor lineup.
