The Kerry Group Rás Mumhan, one of the premier events on the Irish cycling calendar, will get underway today with 190 cyclists representing 37 teams taking to the start in Killorglin.

Tom Mazzone of the Isle of Man team will wear the first yellow jersey of this year’s Kerry Group Rás Mumhan after claiming a brilliant opening stage win last night in Killorglin.

The Kerry Group Rás Mumhan rolls out of Killorglin at 3pm today and another cracking race is expected with upwards of 190 riders set to do battle over the coming four days.
