Bring a flag or a banner or anything to support them all in their massive effort and cheer them up the road and watch them hold their own against some serious riders from all over the world.
We have 4 from our own club and also Dave Brennan from Castlebar CC in the Mayo.ie team.
We have Anthony Murray with the Australian Team Subaru-Albion who is also a Covey Wheelers.
