Cycling Ireland are incredibly sad to hear of the passing of Gabriel Howard this evening. 'Gaybo' has been at the heart of Irish cycling, and was one of the sports hardest working and most dedicated volunteers. 

Cycling Ireland wish to offer Kay Howard and all his family, friends and clubmates our deepest sympathies. He leaves a big hole in Irish cycling.

Ar dheas Dé go raibh a anam.

More details to follow.
