Irish Cancer Society Charity Event

This year our annual charity cycle will be in aid of the Irish Cancer Society. In July of 2024 the club also had the privilege of bringing on a new club sponsor; Movement Fitness and as part of this new partnership the event will leave from their premises on the Sean O’Moore Road. We will have two routes this year, 60km, sets off circa 11:00am and will split into groups depending on numbers. The 125km group is setting off @8:00am.

60k Route : https://www.strava.com/routes/3251982971024738214

125k Route : https://www.strava.com/routes/3251985484525654950

Both cycles will finish at O’Reilly’s Pub in Sandymount. There will also be refreshments available and somewhere to store your bike safely from 3:00pm onwards. All those wishing to DONATE to this worth cause, the club would be extremely grateful.
