Eamon Duffy has announced his intention to resign from his post as Chief Executive Officer of Cycling Ireland. The news comes as a surprise as Duffy was installed in the position just eight months ago.
He had planned to make his decision public during his address at this Saturday's AGM, but moved forward his announcement after the news began to leak out today.
Duffy pointed towards the rapid expansion of CI as the reason for his decision, explaining that the escalating workload he has faced in recent months has prompted a re-evaluation of his position.
He will remain on within Cycling Ireland in a marketing role.
