With the final countdown on to the 2019 Tour de Munster charity cycle, over 100 amateur cyclists are adding the finishing touches to their training preparation as they gear up to tackle the 600km route across the six counties of Munster from August 8th to 11th.
This year’s Tour de Munster charity cycle has once again exceeded all expectations, and the phenomenal total of €294,637.65 raised this year brings the total raised for the Munster branches of Down Syndrome Ireland since the partnership began above the €2.1 million mark.
Over 3,000 cyclists from 24 Countries have registered to cycle the Stephen Roche Atlantic Challenge (SRAC), making it the biggest cycle to ever take place in County Clare.
Since its inception 16 years ago, Tour de Munster has gone from strength to strength. This year alone the charity cycle has raised €285,655.37 for its beneficiary, the Munster branches of Down Syndrome Ireland (DSI).
