Katie George Dunlevy and Eve McCrystal have won Ireland's third gold medal of the Paralympic Games.

They won the Women's B Time Trial on the road in Tokyo, coming home in a time of 47 minutes 32 point zero seven seconds.

It was a commanding gold medal performance.

Team Ireland now has six medals on the board.

Earlier, hand cyclist Gary O'Reilly from Laois claimed bronze in the H5 Time Trial.

He clocked a time of 39 minutes 36 point four six seconds on the road.

And Orla Comerford was 4th in her heat in the T13 100 metres, a result which was not enough to reach the final.
