What is recorded here
David O'Loughlin is a birthplace in Cong, County Mayo, Ireland. Perhaps the boy first pedalled along wet roads there, lungs burning with joy before he ever knew distance. Maybe the small town gave him speed, and he gave the town a name others could pronounce. Imagine him still riding, young and unsteady, turning ordinary streets into a race nobody else could see.
