Castleisland Day Care Centre Cycle is on Sept 7th





Castleisland Day Care Centre officially launched their Annual Fun Cycle.  This is the 8th year of the cycle which is aimed at  all cyclists.
This year we have two routes, an easy 10 mile route and for the cyclist who is looking for more of a challenge, a 50 mile route.
According to event organizer, John Breen of  Currow Cycle Club this event is for all levels of cyclists .The 50mile route may be of particular interest for someone who might be beginning preparations for the Ring of Kerry 2015 or for cyclists who may be winding down after this years Ring.  He went on to say that the shorter 10 mile route is geared towards families and beginner cyclists and is a great incentive for people  to get on their bikes and promote cycling as a way to get active and healthy.
Registration  is €20 with special discount for families and  takes place at Castleisland Day Care Centre between 9.00 a.m and 9.45 a.m .Cycling helmets are compulsory for all cyclists and under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. The cycle gets under way from the Day Centre at 10.00 a.m.

At  the launch of the cycle nominations were made to Castleisland Day Care Centre Board member Donal Nelligan and staff member Marcella Finn to accept the Ice Bucket Challenge. So it seems that cyclists will not only be treated to live music and food at the end of the cycle but  will also get to see both Donal and Marcella getting a bucket of Ice Cold water thrown on them.
