Like where did the idea come from and how long ago did you start kind of developing the idea out into an actual app?

sort of came from like I was always working on the farm when we just went into the dairy farm and I started seeing like how it was still different and there was loads of farm management softwares out there but there was none that really like managed the problems that we were having such as like people and stuff so I wanted to I just had sort of had it in the back burner and I was doing the ABP Ang Shift Challenge with Certified Irish Angs up in the north and I didn't really know if I wanted to stay in agriculture but I think it sort of got me inspired and then after the competition in October I decided I'll try started FarmFlow and started development from there.

Does it cost much? Is it done on kind of a subscription basis or what's kind of the structure of the payment?

At the minute it's free and we're planning it to be free until at least May.

That was always a commitment for even during our staff lunch and we're sort of looking at ways we can start to introduce payment in it because we're our business and we do need to make money from it.

we uh when like i know myself like cash flow on farms can be so tight that there is like countless other softwares charged at 30 euro a month and it's just not like good for funds so we want to sort of like keep our core features free and just do like add-ons so sort of a free main model

Tell me a bit about it.

Yeah, the Europeans was a really good show.

My horse, Fox Chapel, jumped good all the way through.

We were fourth place in the teams and we just missed out by a medal.

Yeah, I'm hoping to go back next year and get a medal.

Tell me about her and your journey to the RDS.

Me and my pony, Tesla, we qualified in the first qualifier.

and we came second, and yeah, she's a really great pony.

It's something really special for him now also to have that support of the team, uh, behind him and, uh- I also believe it's good that they, they not only focused on him, uh, that they also brought, uh, Olav and, uh, and Cees, uh, for the sprints, and that also puts maybe just a little bit, but it puts some pressure off his shoulders i- in the end.

Ben O'Connor racing for Team Jayco-AlUla.

Yeah, I remember it was still those funny times, 2021, so I remember the presentation.

There wasn't heaps of people, and it's kind of weird, on-off weather and raining.

But then once we started the race, I think I actually remember the first couple of kilometers, I was like, "Oh, my God.

Wow." Just a little fight for the break was just warp speed.

Then, uh, that tension that we had throughout that whole stage was something new.

Were you still bowling at that point? Were you still turning your arm over?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, it's been a funny year.

I've started out in Nationals and had a good ride there.

It was lovely to race in Perth, my home city.

Down Under went really well.

I was off on Corkscrew.

It didn't feel great.

And finally, what's your favorite memory of your Tour de France so far?

Here is Limerick manager John Kiely.

No pressure at all.

No pressure at all.

Jesus.

Huh? A Munster final [laughs] and Cork against Cork.

Uh, no pressure, lads.

Jesus, I n- I was nearly going to the coronary, uh, unit just today.

What was, uh, what kind of going on there in your skin?
