Charity Bike Ride

Cycling enthusiasts are being invited to get on their bikes for charity next month and join Dublin Airport workers on a 50 km cycle ride. The event is in support of the DAA's charity of the year, the 3Ts Turning the Tide of Suicide. The organisers are hoping to raise at least €5,000 for the charity, as well as promoting sustainable and environment friendly transport. The Airport Authority has signed up to the "cycle to work" initiative which encourages workers to improve their own health, and that of the environment, by enabling them to buy bicycles at subsidised prices. The scheme has proved to be very successful and local bicycle shops are also reaping the benefits of increased business. Over 50 people have already signed up for the event which will take place on 17th September at 11.00 am.
