Cycle gets helping push from pop heart-throbs

BOYBAND Westlife went head-to-head with rivals Boyzone at Croke Park yesterday for an all-Ireland showdown.

Westlife were joined by former Boyzone ace Keith Duffy to launch a charity bike ride in aid of a new centre for autistic children.

Ten members of Carlow’s St Andrews GAA Club are cycling 1,000 miles across Ireland. They will travel through all 32 counties during their fundraiser in June.
