2020 has been an unprecedented challenge for all charities as they struggle to make raise funds through normal channels. With over 4,000 members we hope to be able to give back to our charity partners.

 

At some point in our lives, we have all been touched by the effects of cancer. The charities we have selected are very close our own hearts in Team IRL Cycling. Richie Sheerin, one of our key admin members is currently undergoing treatment for cancer. In March of 2018, Richie an active and fit runner, cyclist and Gaelic football player was diagnosed with Myeloma, a bone marrow cancer. If you want to hear more of his story. Read about it here.
