The VIVA Wheelers, that band of enthusiastic cyclists that have raised almost € 150,000 for VIVA's projects have just announced two new upcoming fundraising cycles.
Their annual one-day cycle heads to Bantry on Saturday, September 11th this year. The route covering 100km around the Sheep's Head and Mizen peninsulas takes in some of the most spectacular scenery in west Cork.For the committed cyclist, there's a longer loop, which takes in Mizen Head, bringing the distance up to approx. 140km.
Are you hoping to go to the World Cup in New Zealand in 2011? Want to do something useful while you're there? Well, VIVA are planning a five day cycle challenge on the South Island between the Ireland v Italy match and the first round qualifier. The itinerary and costs are being finalised at present and should be available soon.
