On your bike for ‘dawn chorus’ charity cycle fundraiser

Two charities will benefit from a unique “dawn chorus” cycle taking place next month on the award-winning Waterford Greenway and backed by former world number one cyclist Sean Kelly.

Organisers are urging leisure cyclists and others to get on their bikes in Waterford in the early hours of Saturday, July 14, for the landmark cycle, which will raise funds for the Solas Cancer Support Centre in Waterford City and St John’s Special School in Dungarvan.

The event follows the success of the Sean Kelly Tour of Waterford for the last decade and will form part of this year’s four-day Comeraghs Wild Festival.
