Brendan Dowd is Cycling Mizen to Malin head for Charity

I am taking on the challenge to cycle from Mizen Head, the most southerly tip of Ireland up to its most northerly point Malin Head. This is a journey of over 600 miles taking in much of the picturesque Wild Atlantic Way.
It is no easy task  with cycling in excess of 100 miles per day.
I am doing it with a great bunch of people, over 60 of us and a wonderful back up crew who are all doing this voluntarily.
BICA have supported many worthwhile causes including Abbie Bennett, check this out:-

Maeve Fanning - when faced with this challenge my challenge is easy
Maeve is a 39-year-old mother of three young children who at Christmas 2024 was diagnosed with advanced, inoperable thymoma cancer, and was given less than two years to live. Despite limited success with NHS treatment, she courageously continued private treatment in London at a significant cost. With incredible strength and positivity, Maeve is determined to spend as much time as possible with her young family. Support would help her continue treatment and create many lasting memories with her children.
 
Please help me raise the vital funds needed to allow Maeve to continue with her treatment
