The old Avondale Bark Cycling Club was one of the most successful in the country prior to its disbandment and won many all Ireland championships at all levels. These included Declan Byrne from Wexford road, Simon Murray from Knockenrahan, Wyane Byrne from Rathdrum. One member Declan Doyle from Fernhill went onto race as a semi-professional in America.
