McCann set to guest star in Rás Mumhan

DAVID McCANN will begin his build-up to a defence of his FBD Insurance RÁS title in Kerry over the Easter weekend, when he lines up as favourite to win the Rás Mumhan, the perfect prelude to Irish cycling’s showpiece.

McCann set to guest star in Rás Mumhan

In recent years the event has taken on many of the characteristics of the Rás - great organisation, tough mountain stages and then the 10k time trial on Easter Sunday morning when McCann can clinch victory.

He rides the event as a guest on a strong Earl of Desmond team that also includes the teak-tough Tralee man Paul Griffin, Sean Lacey and the underrated Willie Gleeson.
