Michael Delaney (red helmet)
It is with great sadness that we have learned of the death of Paralympian Michael Delaney, following a hard battle with cancer.

Michael represented Ireland alongside Tandem Pilot Dave Peelo at the Beijing Paralympic Games in 2008 and many UCI World Cups and World Championships in the years leading up to the Games.

Michael contributed greatly to the team efforts and his work and determination allowed many others to follow in his path. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Fionnuala and his 2 children, along with the Delaney family.

Michael will be sadly missed by his many friends and colleagues in the Paracycling community.

May he Rest in Peace.
