A cycle around Inishowen has raised a whopping €3,000 for two different charities.
The welcome cash was raised by Inish Cycling Club and friends pedalling the “i100” route around the peninsula.
The funds have been divided between Ard Aoibhinn Alzheimer’s Unit in Carndonagh and Zest Healing the Hurt in Derry.
Organisers have issued a huge thanks to the Ballyliffen Hotel and Philomena at the Wee Hall in Culdaff for facilitating the food stops.
This year again the support of Seamus and Terry McElvaney was invaluable, as was that of Paddy Gillespie – their generosity and good humour is not taken for granted .
The club want to thank especially Michael Mc Daid who captured the day again for us so perfectly .
Of course no journey can be completed without sustenance , here a special mention to Caroline and Donna the lunch ladies , not forgetting the tea ladies Louise, Elly, Marylou and Joan.
A final word of thanks to the cyclists and their sponsors who really made the day a success through their combined determination and generosity.
Make a note of next years challenge Saturday 6th May 2017!
