Daire Feeley is in awesome form at the moment and will go to the Suir Valley 3-Day as one of the favourites. The young Roscommon man is having the best season of his career and it's no surprise to see interest being shown in him from abroad.

Top UK-based continental level team JLT-Condor Cycles presented by Mavic are believed to be keeping a close eye on top Irish rider Daire Feeley.
The iTap man is having a superb season so far with several top results and performances to his name.
He took bronze in the men’s U23 national championships road race behind Michael O’Loughlin (Team Wiggins) and Mark Downey (VC Toucy) after spending most of the day up the road in the break with WorldTour men Nicolas Roche (Team Sky) and Matt Brammeier (Dimension Data).

The move across the water, if it goes ahead, would be a good one for the young Roscommon man and give him access to an excellent race programme and a very well-organised professional set-up.
The team have produced some really strong riders over the year and in the John Herety-managed stable at the moment are Irish riders Conor Dunne and David McCarthy.
They have history with irish riders in the past, with Aaron Buggle and Felix English having ridden with them in the past.
Currently, Feeley is second in Cycling Ireland’s rider rankings, just three points behind leader Christopher McGlinchey while in the national series league table he’s third behind Aquablue pair Sean Lacey and Conor Hennebry.
This weekend, Feeley will head to the Suir Valley 3-Day and Herety will get a very good chance to see him up close and personal as he is bringing a strong squad of riders to the race.
Efforts to contact JLT-Condor Cycles presented by Mavic were unsuccessful.
