Boyzone star, Keith Duffy, will be
joined on some legs of the Mizen Head to Malin Head
charity cycle by Ireland-Man United legends
including Paul McGrath. |
All funds raised will
go to Irish Autism Action, the Manchester United
Foundation and Hearts & Minds.
"I hope to do the whole lot myself. We are just
looking for people to join us from Mizen to Malin.
Last year we cycled from Geneva to Monte Carlo it
was great fun," Duffy, who has a daughter with
autism, told the Ray D'Arcy Show.
"We have 100 people from Manchester and 100 people
from Ireland. It’s in relationship with the
Manchester United Foundation. We are getting a lot
of ex-players to do legs on the trip."
A spokesperson for the event added: "Regardless of
experience, all levels of cyclists who would like to
take on the challenge of cycling 80 miles each day
covering the length of Ireland are welcome to join
in.
"There will be plenty of opportunities to chill out,
have fun and make some great new friendships while
helping to make a difference to the lives of
children affected by Autism in the UK and Ireland."
If you are up to the challenge, simply register for
€150 and agree to raise a further minimum of €1,500.
