He came to Killarney yesterday on his crux... It's something seing him do his thing on TV but I can tell you it's another hanging on to him when he hits the front and starts chasing....none other than Alan Hatherly... What a privilege getting to race with these two guys

I'm guessing 520 on fresh legs?

They don't call it the Beers train for nothing. Well done for hanging on (I presume?).

Team Santalized?

 

At least Keagan now stands a chance of actually winning it...

Outride Toyota Songo ….

epic losing its lustre?

 

I'm quite surprised by this pairing. @J Wakefield whats your take on the potential reasoning behind Matt teaming up wit Keegan. KS has never demonstrated the ability to hang tough for 8 days. Is SFR sending a mens team this year with the start of the season only 2 weeks after the ACE finishes

My take is I think it's cool and a good team going into Epic with a chance of winning. Many variables come into play over the week to win but the team has a good chance. Like all the others year when Matt was teamed up with partners.

I actually feel sorry for the competition 😜
