As this year’s Tour de Munster charity cycle quickly approaches, cyclists will be entering the final stages of their training regimes to make sure they are flying fit to tackle the testing 600km route across the six counties of Munster on their quest to raise vital funds for Down Syndrome Ireland’s Munster branches.

Over 100 amateur cyclists are preparing take on the 600km cycle in the hope of raising over €250,000 for Down Syndrome Ireland and individual beneficiaries and the event will pass through Clare.
