Michael Smiley takes a cycle tour of Northern Ireland. He meets former pro-cyclist Stephen Gallagher, interviews author Dervla Murphy and chats to Sir Jack Lesley.
Smiley's back with plenty of laughs, on his bike near Carnlough with local former pro-cyclist Stephen Gallagher, who helped design the Giro d'Italia route. He goes to Crossmaglen for a rare interview with one of his favourite authors, Dervla Murphy, who chats about her astonishing adventures on a bicycle. Last stop is Glaslough to meet 97-year-old Sir Jack Lesley who shares Smiley's love of dance music and clubbing.
