Conor O'Dea has selected his new challenge for 2024.
It is called Coast 2 Coast and it will be from Hook Head lighthouse (Wexford) to Loop Head Lighthouse (Clare). It will be a 2.5 day event on May 31st/ June 1st/2nd (June Weekend 2024).

A Note from Conor.

I will be raising money for Greenmount Cycling Academy in Limerick. This is a cycling club that caters for all age groups and also provide bikes & trikes for Special needs cyclists. 

In 2022 Greenmount Cycling Academy provided a trike for me to use as part of my rehabilitation from a spinal injury. It has been a huge help to me in building leg and core strength. 

The Coast2Coast event is my way of giving back to GCA and we are hoping to raise €50,000 to purchase a minibus for use by all age groups.
