Following a wrist injury sustained in a quad bike accident recently, Ryan Farquhar had to pull out partway through tonight's practice session for the first road race meeting of the season at Cookstown (racing is tomorrow). With the North West and TT getting ever nearer, it's to be hoped that Ryan can shake off his injury in time to be fully fit for two of his main races of the year. Full details of tonight's practicing at Cookstown is available on <A HREF="http://www.realroadracing.com">www.realroadracing.com</A> (to subscribers only).

details of practice at the mid-ulster venue can also be found at <A HREF="http://www.midulsterracing.co.uk">www.midulsterracing.co.uk</A>

full race results should be available early sunday.
