There's a bunch of medals to be had amongst that team.... the cycling squad alone should do very well and bring home a few medals. Should be well up on the 3 golds 1 silver and 1 bronze from the last Paralympics in Beijing. I hear the official target is 3 golds but there's at least 3 gold medal chances in athletics, if not more and 3 gold medal chances in cycling alone....then there's a strong boccia team as well.

In fact between them Jason Smyth (100m, 200m) and Michael McKillop (800m, 1,500m) would have a great chance of surpassing the target of 3 golds. Should be exciting to see how well the team does, it'll be impressive.
