Download booking form

Carrigaline & District Lions Club Annual Cycle Classic takes place on Saturday 6th October. The cycle classic is celebrating its 21st year this year and from humble beginnings, it has grown into a huge charity event. In the first year, 1991, 18 cyclists took part and raised €2,500. It has grown steadily year by year and last year 200 cyclists took part and in total over €550,000 has been raised for local charities over the years.

This year’s cycle takes place on Saturday 6th October and is sponsored by Mr. John O’Connor of Victoria Cross Cycles. The route this year will be from Carrigaline to Kenmare and organisers are hoping that it will be bigger and better than ever. All cyclists must raise a target spnsorship of at least €300 and this includes dinner and overnight accomodation in the Kenmare Bay Hotel. The charge for an additional guest is €80. Participants have a choice of cycling the entire 90km route or may also opt to cycle 60km or 30km. Transport will be provided to ferry participants to the appropriate start locations. All cyclists will finish at the Kenmare Bay Hotel in Kenmare where the cycle dinner dance will be held on Saturday night.
