The Nissan M2M Challenge

Posted on

This Mizen to Malin challenge is one of the toughest undertakings yet by some of our club cyclists.

Like previous cycles/challenges we hope to raise money for Breast Cancer Ireland, with which we have a close association, & to reduce the Kilmacud Glenalbyn Sports Clubs debt of approximately €650,000.  This debt belongs to all sections; GAA, Tennis, Snooker etc. & their members.
 
Starting on Wednesday the 30th May 2012, current hurling mentors (and former hurlers of various standards!!) Donie Dowling, Pat Halpin, Kevin Coakley and Ronan Conway will be donning the lycra to form part of the Crokes peloton taking on this 645km challenge:

  • Day 1 - 153 km Mizen Head to Tralee via Bantry, Kenmare & Killarney
  • Day 2 - 168 km Tralee to Oranmore via Tarbert, Killimer, Ennistymon, Ballyvaughan
  • Day 3 - 133 km Oranmore to Sligo via Tuam, Ballyhaunis
  • Day 4 - 110 km Sligo to letterkenny via Ballyshannon, Ballybofey
  • Day 5 - 81 km Letterkenny to Malin Head via Burnfoot, Buncrana

 

We would encourage everyone to sponsor the lads, however small, as both causes are both needy & worthy of your support.
