The National Road Race Championships take place this weekend in Kantuk, Co Cork, where the locals will be hoping for a home win the elite men's race with Eddie Dunbar. The Ineos Grenadiers rider is yet to claim the senior men's Irish title but with two huge wins under his belt already this season in Italy and Hungary, he will be one of the big favourites on Sunday.
However, there are plenty of riders in the field who can beat him, as you can see from the entry list below for the combined elite and U23 men's race. And the junior men's race, while a smaller field, also contains plenty of sharks who'll be aiming to win big.
