Two long days in the saddle cycling 180km each day, staying in a team hotel, Renault support vehicles, Giro D’Galway branded gear, crowds to welcome to at each stage stop and the euphoria of completing a serious cycling challenge. Most importantly you will be raising vital funds for Jigsaw Galway and spreading the message of positive mental health across Galway.”
