2023 John Tiernan Memorial Greenway Cycle

Mayo, ireland

Mayo Cancer Support, in conjunction with the Tiernan Family of Louisburgh, Co Mayo, is pleased stage the 2023 John Tiernan Memorial Greenway Cycle on Sunday, August 6 next.

This fun, family-friendly 50km leisure cycle between Westport and Tiernaur along the Great Western Greenway in Co Mayo has been held annually in aid of Mayo Cancer Support for over a decade and was last year rebranded in memory of event founder, the late John Tiernan of Doughmakone, Louisburgh.

John was a former vice chairperson of the board of directors of Mayo Cancer Support who gave tirelessly and generously of his time for the good of others.

A cancer survivor himself, John possessed a wonderfully positive outlook on life and was committed to helping others affected by the illness.

The extent of his dedication is reflected in his decision to establish the Annual Greenway Cycle – a valued fundraising event that he coordinated every year for over a decade in aid of Mayo Cancer Support.

This year, the event will take place on Sunday, August 6 next. Registration costs €20 per person and will take place from 9am at Westport Leisure Centre on the day with cyclists departing from 10am.

Refreshments will be served along the way at Nevin’s of Tiernaur.

This page has been created for participants that may wish to seek sponsorship or anyone who is unable to take part but would like to support the event with a donation.
