 Anna, I've written plenty of winners. Definitely. Things are going really well. I'm getting loads of support and riding these big races is what you want and getting the good results out of them, tops it off altogether and Justin's been very supportive with me all season. It's my first season without a claim, so it's a good bit tougher but we'll just keep the head down and keep kicking and hopefully things keep going forward from here. Well done Dylan, another great big race win for you this evening and keep it going, thank you. Thanks very much. There you go, that's Dylan Brown-McMonagall speaking to Dennis Kerwin who won the big race, the feature today in Leopardstown, another victory for the Donegal Jockey. Okay, we're going to turn our attention to Cycling, the Donegal Ultra Atlantic Way 555 race. It starts tomorrow morning at 5am. This is the seventh edition of the race and it's grown in popularity ever since it began and it's the ultimate challenge for man and bicycle. That is for sure taking on the rugged coastline of Donegal taking on some of the fantastic scenery and as always the man who talks about it here in Highland as a race organiser, one part of the race organising team and that of course is Sean McFadden. Sean, you're welcome to the studio of Highland once again. Thank you all again for having us on board. Yeah, listen, it's been a busy couple of days, users are starting tomorrow morning at 5am. I've seen the videos already in your social media channels. Everybody's coming, they're registered, they're getting into the groove for this Sean. They're getting into the groove, it's heating up there, the LK bikes at the minute. We're doing car check at the minute and we're well through them. We did two nights this year of car check, so we did last night and tonight. So they're flocking in and the favourites coming in and we're getting excited. Yeah, has there been any changes Sean to the course and to what's involved in this race because there's a route there and there hasn't been much change over the years and listen, it's a difficult route. Has it changed much, has it? No, we haven't changed anything, gosh, and we've kept at the same route. We've included this year the 333 but we've kept the 555, the 555 for the last seven years and that's why it's so popular and people are coming to challenge themselves and test themselves to the limit and I think that's the thing about the 555, there's loads of races out there at the minute but the 555 is like 7,000 metres of climbing and there's no place to hide. There's not, we've seen your very own John Breslin do it last year and a huge achievement just to get round in the 555 and listen, you admire anybody that does it Sean? Of course, of course. So you do, but who are the people to watch out this year? Oh listen, we've got a packed house, you know what I mean? We start with the solo women in the 555 we've only got one this year named Cecilia Holden she's a local woman, she lives over there over in Glenties, our dry area and thank God we have one solo woman in the 555 and I've just chatted her there earlier on she's nervous but she's happy to be here and she's happy to do the training and we've got the start line so we wish her all the best and it's nice to have one woman in the 555 we've been blessed the last couple of years we've had a good battle last year with the 555 women and this year unfortunately, okay we've got one but listen, she stepped up to the mark and we're delighted you know? Yeah and what about the men? The men, this year in the 555 men the doors open for anybody to take it on okay we do have Sean Herron that did the unsupported race last year in the 555 and he is the current Wreckleholder from the Miss and the Malm so on paper he looks the favourite but we've got an open door there, Michael Flood from Embey Vale for me I'm going to give a shout out he's a local guy and he's been training with Colm Richardson and Kevin Holian all in Boz all year, a boy called Mark Cassidy he rides for Aragile CC and he's a former Gilley player he's put in a massive amount of training so he can be a competitor for the 555 who else have we got there? I've just chatting a guy there earlier on called Aaron McCullough from Belfast started cycling a year ago bought a bacon lockdown for 300 quid he's only cycling a year and he's taking on the 555 so that's a massive... He's a brave man and we're lucky this year I suppose we've got Joe Barr there, Joe Barr's crew and Adam Endeavour Aiman's been here for the last two years trying to finance the 555 last year he was unfortunately crashed and damaged the ankle but he's back to take on the 555 so it's opened up to anybody with endurance cycling you just don't know what's going to happen it's a full house and we're excited and excited about the 333 there's a big entry for this shot and there's a couple of well-known names now before we start going down through them we were getting excited if you're into this sort of sport about Ronan McLaughlin doing it but unfortunately Ronan has had the pull-out but you've got a well-suited following we've got one McLaughlin out and another McLaughlin in so we've got Mitchell McLaughlin stepping in was supposed to crew for Ronan McLaughlin unfortunately Ronan had to pull out for family problems that's priority at the end of the day he's stepped up the mark Mitchell has been racing all year he's never been challenged over 333km it's going to be a massive head-to-head there because young Mark McGinley is back this year Mark had unfortunately bad luck this year he broke a collarbone missed a lot of training didn't get a lot of racing got racing at the end of the season so Mark's gone on the 333 so it's going to be a huge battle between them boys and at the end of the day it's very hard to look past Mitchell as he's been riding as a pro and a very on the continent and then you've McGinley as we know gave Ronan a really battle in the 555 last year so it's going to be a home battle it's going to be a ding dong a derby between them two and it's going to be exciting and it's made very exciting for us as organisers that Mitchell has stepped in and Mark wanted a challenge and Ronan was coming he's got one now Lorraine Malarkey's back she's Monahan isn't she I spoke to her a couple of times last year she's the 555 record holder she's taken on the 333 that this should be a walk in the park well you don't mean at the end of the day it's still 333 but like if you've got all the competitors it's not a walk in the park okay if there's nobody else in it there's a difference between getting around it and no getting around it is still tough but when you're racing it at a high level or a high speed that's when it tells the tale so she's up against it because we've got a young girl here Alison Higgins a well known name and Donnie Gaul as you know Joe Higgins as her father was a very good runner with Sean Raley's and all that Alison took up cycling there but I'm going to say two years ago she's racing with the four masters team she's done a few good races she's gone out with Mark McGinley there are a couple Mark has well prepped her so it's going to be good it's going to be a tough battle there we have a few other local names they're Finn Begley from the 24-7 24-7 Traffin Club season there as well just going through there's another Emer Carr is another one so it can go anyway you know so yeah it's open like it's opened up to anybody no found during cycling the weather's looking good for tomorrow it's going to be a bit of a headwind for most of it and part of it but it's very little rain coming so you know if we can get them off the ramp without any rain it's very hard in cycling if you're starting wet and cold if we can get them off the ramp dry and get them out on the road for four or five hours and then it starts raining it's okay you know it can we a headwind going up around Hornhead it's going to be a headwind over Mamoor Gap for the 333 over Glengesh so the ones going to be in their face so it's going to be exciting times 333 this year has definitely brought another spark to Ulter Cycling and Donegal and it's given other people that thought they couldn't do the 555 it was just too much of a challenge for them so hopefully now it might give them a stepping stone to the 555 you know well you can get all the details of course so Ulter 555 Facebook page and on the website as well so tomorrow 5.30am start the first riders away when are we expecting the top contenders back into Lerrickenig and what sort of time well for the 333 I'm going to say around 11 hours or around that you know so tomorrow night sometime probably around 9-10 o'clock they should be coming back in and the 555 competitors around 20 hours is going to be a real good target you know as we know Ronan's record holder he did in 1742 so if anybody is coming in around that 18-19 hours they're going to earn it you know but I don't think that will be possible the year because the win is not in their favour for probably a fast time you know but at the end of the day they're out there probably to make the podium so let's see what happens okay and what's the advice to people to the competitors support those try and support the competitors give the riders a bit of space and for the riders to give you know car users on the road a bit of space as well don't be holding up the traffic all crew if you're feeding your rider or changing the bike make sure you pull in on the higher shoulder and do all that kind of stuff you know and be the rules of the road you know we have to run a safe race run it on the rules of Cycle Ireland and you know we have to run as safe as possible so yeah and you couldn't do it without your right hand man no listen, Eugene McGilligan Eugene now actually is taking part tomorrow in the 333 yeah he's torn the line well listen, Eugene has done Trojan work over the last year he's set it up we've got a new crew in there my wife Avian's helping out my daughter Sean is helping out Kira's helping out Kieran O'Donnell's helping out we have a massive crew there you know I'm living in Dubai, Eugene's carrying the can he's doing there will be one or two finishes before Eugene comes in but listen, we've loads of help you know so there's not an issue I suppose just to thank maybe a few of the sponsors again, Mount Arrigo Hotel LK Bikes, people that's come on board Liam Daughty Fruit there's loads of ones there that I probably I forgot but listen thanks to everybody, you know the 555 it's seven years in a row we can't do it without our main sponsors thank you to everybody that's talk part to all the staff behind the scenes that have built the rally ramp to anything that they've done for us, myself and Eugene to keep this going, no more than Highland Radio thanks to Highland Radio for promoting it every year we get our fair share in the radio and we're delighted listen, just all competitors out there tomorrow, best of luck and hopefully we all see you in the funny swamp at the Mount Arrigo Hotel safe and sound thanks for coming in and the very best luck to you and your team Atlantic Way 555 as always it's a huge event and the best luck to everybody that is competing in the 555 and the 333 and we can't forget about all the teams that are there as well despite all the solo
