The Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Mr. Shane Ross, TD, and the Minister with responsibility for Sport, Mr. Brendan Griffin, TD, today congratulated Irish cyclist Dan Martin on winning the sixth Stage of the Tour de France.
Minister Ross said: “I want to congratulate Dan Martin for his exceptional performance to achieve a Stage win at the Tour de France. This is an achievement that few Irish riders have accomplished, and it is a testament to his hard work and dedication over many years of training and competition. While I know the Tour is a long and arduous event with many more stages to come, I hope that Dan can take the time to savour this victory. I wish him continued success in the Tour and will be watching him and the other Irish entrants with great interest.”
Minister Griffin said: “I am delighted to congratulate Dan Martin on winning Stage 6 of the Tour de France. The Tour is one of the most popular events in all of sport, extending far beyond the sport of cycling. Irish cyclists have made their mark on this event over the years, and I am proud that they continue to challenge at the most prestigious and historic Grand Tour event. Dan’s achievement today is an important milestone and I hope that he can build on it over the coming weeks of the Tour. I wish him and the other Irish entrants every success.”
