inishowen3Do consider joining us on our last day:  Saturday 12th September
There are several options of falling into the peleton.  The distance in brackets is what the rest of the cycle will total.

We’ll leave Victoria Bridge (60 miles, 98 km) at 9 am, arrive at Harrys, Bridge End for a complimentary lunch  [Ed:-that's for the 3 proper cyclists, by the way!].
Leave Harry’s at 12.30 (33 miles).
Meet final group at North Pole Bar, Drumfree (20 miles) at 2pm.
Arrive at Malin Head  (Bamba’s Crown) approx 3.30 -4 or anytime thereafter, for tea, cake and a kiss goodbye to the bike. If you’re planning on doing the ride, you may need to arrange for someone to take a car to carry your bike home [Philip Gardiner can help to co-ordinate this. We may need some drivers with bike racks to help ferry cyclists home].
The map details the route we’ll take.

If you’re joining us please send us a comment with a contact number/email address.  You can download a sponsorship form from this site.  As a minimum, plan to raise in pounds the number of miles you’ll be cycling.  You’ll need to wear a helmet.  There’ll be support on the day if you run into any troubles with your bike/legs/motivation.

Rosie.
