C’est le jeune Irlandais Conn McDunphy (Lucan County Dublin), 21 ans, qui a remporté la 1ère étape du Tour d’Ulster à Bandbridge. Au terme des 180 kilomètres d’une étape très vallonnée, il devance en solitaire l’Italien Matteo Cigala (Team Viner Caremark Pactimo) et le Britannique William Harper (St Piran)
McDunphy est sorti à 10 kilomètres du final alors qu’il faisait parti d’un groupe d’échappés composée d’une dizaine de coureurs dont 3 hommes du VC Toucy avec Jake Gray, Wilfried Canales et Scott Auld entre autre.
Le VC Toucy place 3 hommes dans le top 10 au général
