After six unforgettable days in the saddle, crossing three countries and over 700km, Sean Hogan’s Northampton to Belmullet cycling challenge reached its finish line in Belmullet, County Mayo! 

The team was escorted into town by local gardaí, welcomed with cheers, and celebrated by family, friends, and the community. The atmosphere was electric as each cyclist and crew member was introduced on stage, with heartfelt thanks shared for their incredible effort and for everyone who supported the journey.

This ambitious ride set off from Northampton on 2nd August 2025, raising over £65,000 for our charity and six local organisations in Belmullet, including youth disability support, community defibrillators, cancer care, suicide prevention, family support, and the local GAA club.

From the longest 170km stretch through Co. Roscommon to the inspiring community fundraisers along the way, every mile and every moment built towards this incredible achievement.

Thank you to everyone who donated, supported, and cheered us on. Together, we made a real difference, and crossed a finish line we’ll never forget.🚴‍♂️✨
