A number of supporters join in for the final leg

How many of the cyclists can you identify? We met up at the North Pole Bar in Dumfries (North of Buncrana). Hilda had made some sandwiches to provide some much needed energy for the final leg of the trip.

Some had cycled from Strabane, some from Derry/Bridgend and some started in Dumfries. Rosie, Chris and Patrick were also supported by the motorcycle ‘marshals’ who kindly helped keep the cyclists safe.

malin2020cakeAt the end of the cycle we had tea and goodies – thanks to all who helped. Thanks also are due to the staff at Halfords (Crescent link) for providing Martina with some free goodies which we gave to the cyclists at the end of the trip as a little reward for their efforts.
