Read on for details on the 240km  Dublin to Comber Cycle.

This two-day cycling event will depart from Dublin at noon on Friday 21 August and arrive in Comber on Saturday evening 22 August.  The route will follow along the scenic Carlingford Lough with the first night stop over in Carlingford before cycling onto Comber, Co Down via Kilkeel and Downpatrick.  The route is just over 240kms (150 miles) in total.
 
The cycle is open to all ages and levels of ability from Lance Armstrong wannabe’s to cycling enthusiasts!  Funds raised go to the charity Comber, which was founded almost 20 years ago by the Carson’s in Comber Co Down after the fall of Ceausescu in Romania which resulted in the exposure of the horrific conditions children in orphanages lived. 
 
Comber, registered in Durrow, Co Laois, promotes community living for children and adults currently living in institutions, especially those with disabilities.  Their aim is to build a “Future without Orphanages” not only in Romania but other eastern countries.  For more information on the work of Comber check www.comber.ie
