SUMMARY:Cycle Against Suicide Bike4Life 2021
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Cycle Against Suicide’s Bike4Life 21 – Around the World\nEvery year\, on September 10th\, millions of people around the world come together to mark World Suicide Prevention Day. Cycle Against Suicide joins this global community as we once again hold our annual Bike4Life to mark this important day and join others in cycling ‘around the world’. This year\, we gather promoting evidence-based action to reduce the incidence of suicide and suicidal behaviour. \nMore than just a cyclethon\, our ‘Bike4Life’ is an opportunity to move for something that matters – for healing and recovery for those impacted by suicide; for the memory of loved ones lost to suicide; for hope in communities and families struggling with the impact of isolation and loneliness in these unprecedented times. \nOur Bike4Life goal this year is to cycle ‘around the world’ in one day\, promoting suicide awareness and prevention. \n  \nOne Day – One Goal.\nWe want to complete 42\,000Kms in a day and while doing it\, reignite the sense of community\, camaraderie and personal connection that has been missing from our lives due to COVID-19.\nOn September 10th\, gather your family and friends\, your school\, your club or your organisation and join Cycle Against Suicide on it’s ‘Bike4Life -Around the World’ campaign. Let us move together in support of suicide prevention and create a world where fewer people die by suicide. You can cycle any distance you want\, anywhere you want – at home\, at the gym\, on any road\, or on your favourite track. \nYour Bike4Life participation helps to raise awareness and funds that save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide. Funds raised go towards increasing Cycle Against Suicide evidence-based supports and programmes into communities across Ireland. (Primary and Post Primary Schools’ Programmes and our Community Buddy Programme).\nIn Ireland\, one person each day is a victim to suicide\, with tens of thousands of people at risk. Every suicide destroys families and communities. It leaves immense uncertainty\, guilt\, regret and profound feelings of loss. Cycle Against Suicide is working hard to save lives and lessen the huge toll suicide places on families and communities through its evidence-based programmes and events. \nThis World Suicide Prevention Day\, September 10th\, 2021\, support the work of Cycle Against Suicide\, Hop on your bike\, and together\, let’s provide hope and encouragement to those who are struggling. \nOne Day – One Goal: REGISTER NOW CLICK HERE

SUMMARY:Tour de Burren
DESCRIPTION:GEARING UP FOR THE 16TH TOUR DE BURREN\nThe annual Tour de Burren will take place in the picturesque village of Ballyvaughan\, County Clare located at the heart of the Wild Atlantic Way\, on Saturday 20th June 2020. \nIt’s time to oil the brakes\, pump up the wheels and get a few miles on the legs for the 16th annual Tour de Burren Cycle on June 20\, 2020. \nTruly a local event organised by the Burren Cycling Club\, the cycle will bring 1\,000 regular and would-be riders out into the beautiful landscape of the Burren National Park in County Clare. Can there be a better way to engage with our awe-inspiring scenery than to ride along the Wild Atlantic Way on two wheels? And with excellent signage on the route as well as an army of marshals\, participants feel safe and relaxed so they enjoy the spin. \n  \n \nCYCLE ROUTES\nTwo main routes start in Ballyvaughan and bring cyclists through the Burren Geopark\, past Fr Ted’s House and back home along the coast road which forms part of the Wild Atlantic Way. The Burning Burren 130km route starts at 9am\, while the Burren Heart 100km route starts an hour later at 10am.\nBoth routes meet at Kilnaboy Community Hall for the famous food stop\, which is worth the cycling effort to get there. Sandwiches including the famous brown bread and smoked salmon\, cakes including strawberry cheesecake and apple tart\, biscuits and endless supply of tea and coffee await the riders who’ll get to chat and compare stats (or aches). In fact\, the Tour de Burren food stop is nearly as famous as the cycle itself… part of the Tour de Burren challenge lies in getting up on the bike after all the cheesecake. \nAnd of course\, we haven’t forgotten cycling families – the Family Loop takes off at 11am. We’re hoping to see more mini cyclists than ever on June 20. \nENTRY FEES\nThis year\, we’re reducing the entry fee with a special early bird rate of €30 for the first 200 entries\, €35 for the next 300 and €40 for the final 500 participants. So get in gear and sign up!\nAlong with the reduced entry fee\, everybody receives a Tour de Burren beanie hat which they can pick up on signing in. Our beanies are sure to complement the Tour de Burren fashion collection which entrants have picked up over the years!\nBy the way\, did we mention the whipped ’99 ice cream at the end of the cycle…\nTo enter the Tour de Burren and for all other information\, please visit www.tourdeburren.com \nClick Here to Register today.\n
