Stage 3 - May 2: Gortin Glen time trial, (short)

Evans takes the lead

By Shane Stokes, irishcycling.com

With national ten mile record holder Tommy Evans on the same time going into the afternoon's 1.3 mile time trial at Gortin Glen, his position was by no means secure. And so it proved; David O'Loughlin finished eleven seconds clear of French-based Denis Lynch, but with his Totalcycling.com team-mate Evans third and Wyley fifth, the lead changed hands by the margin of three seconds.
