Ireland End to End Cycle !

As I start to type this, my husband and friends should be cycling the last couple of miles to Malin Head after their epic #Mizen2Malin  cycle relay.


They decided their big cycle this year would be a fund-raiser, and several charities were selected including Tim's choice of Invest in ME.


Start line-up at Mizen Head:


Their epic cycle started on Friday 20th June at 9am and with only two pit stops the three teams relayed through the night and ---- word just in ---- finished today at about 4.30pm.  


One of the support vehicles


Athlone - midway, middle of the night!


On the road again!


And here's the finish line-up at Malin Head.



 So now they are checking in for a shower, a well earned rest and a big dinner and celebration.

I'll get my husband home tomorrow!

Well done Tim and co.  Proud of you all - and the fantastic totals raised for charity.

£2120 + Gift Aid for Invest in ME as the total currently stands.  Yay!  
(Up dated Thurs 3rd July)

  2. Wow, what an amazing thing to do! They must be so sore by now! My cousin did a London - Brighton cycle and he said that was hard and he had not long left the army! An amazing thing to do - good on them!
