The 2024 Galway Cycle, hosted and run by past and present students of Maynooth University and has raised almost €2 million over the past 36 years will be run in aid of Little Blue Heroes Foundation over the weekend of April 5 to 7, 2024.

The Galway Cycle, which involves more than 100 cyclists making their way from the Co Kildare college to Galway and back has taken place every year since 1987 (with the exception of 2020) and raised almost €2 million for a variety of children’s charities along the way.

The event will see a huge convoy of cyclists and support crew making their way from Maynooth University to Galway on the Friday, and cycling back to Maynooth on the Sunday - a distance of 200kms each way.

We would urge any experienced cyclists who wish to take part to sign up for the event, and welcomed any donations by non-cyclists at https://www.idonate.ie/event/galwaycycle2024
