My Personal Message

Hi All,

We are undertaking a cycling challenge in May 2010 in honour of our friend Alan 'Gaggs' Gallagher who passed away sadly this past year. We will be cycling a route from UCC in Cork to Alan's hometown of Roscommon, taking in Limerick and Galway en route. The total distance is approximately 285kms and we will endeavour to complete the challenge in two days.

We are hoping to use the challenge to raise awareness and vitally needed funds for Brainwave The Irish Epilepsy Association.

Brainwave – The Irish Epilepsy Association charity is a very worthy cause and we would very much appreciate your support in helping us to raise funds for this charity.

You can donate using the "sponsor me now" button below via credit or debit card. You can be assured that your transaction on the mycharity.ie website is very secure. You will automatically receive an e-mail from me thanking you for your support, and acknowledging the amount of your donation. Any donation no matter how small is hugely appreciated.

Many thanks in advance for your support,

The 'Tour de Gaggs' Team.
