  • One week to go! Ramped up the training over the weekend with a lovely 70km around South Kilkenny. On paper it looked like smooth roads the whole way, but google had other ideas and sent me to some seriously potholed, moss covered, up-and-down backroads (with friendly farm dogs!). All character building though, and the countryside is absolutely stunning.

  • Not much to post over the last couple of weeks as I'm recovering from a tennis induced calf injury... frustrating, but a great chance to give the bike a good clean and plan out a revised training plan! Thankfully after some intensive physio things are on the improve and I'm hoping to be back on the bike in the next day or two to get training again. That training target is still achievable!

  • A week off work seemed the perfect time to get some much needed training in. So with the new bike and more lycra than I ever thought I'd need, I clocked up some beautiful rides around Mayo and Galway.

The C19 pandemic has had a huge impact on all of us. I've been one of the lucky ones to keep my job, be able to keep in contact (via phone & zoom) with friends and family, and keep healthy, but for many people the pandemic has caused significant pain, suffering, loss and isolation. The work of charities such as Jigsaw, Simon Community, Blue Box, A lust for life, and Cork Counselling Services has helped hundreds of people to cope through this period, and I've decided to take part in the Deloitte One Good Turn Cycle to help these charities continue their amazing work.

I'm not much of a cyclist, I'm not very fit, I've recently realised I'm rather injury prone, and I'm carrying a little extra weight (thanks remote working!) so riding from Cork to Limerick, and then onto Galway (a lazy 221km)
is going to be a big achievement. I'm doing this for a great cause, and any support will be really appreciated (both for the charity and my motivation!).

All funds raised here will go directly to this great cause.

I hope you can help me by donating whatever you can. Simply click the Donate button above. All donations are processed securely.

Many Thanks for your support.
