High Nelly Charity Cycle

Cyclists young and old are being invited to take part in this High Nelly Charity Cycle on Sunday, 26th April 2026 in support of the Mayo Roscommon Hospice Foundation’s Sunflower Children’s Hospice.

The leisurely charity cycle will begin at 11am from the Church in Westport, travelling along the scenic Greenway to Nevins in Newport.

Connect with a big part of Irish history and raise funds for a special cause by hopping on your High Nelly or one supplied by the organising group! High Nelly bicycles and outfits can be supplied for those who do not have one.

Organisers promise a relaxed High Nelly leisure cycle with plenty of craic along the way, welcoming cyclists of all ages and abilities to get involved while supporting an important cause.

The return cycle to Westport is optional, and transport will be available for participants who prefer not to make the journey back on two wheels.

For more information contact Martin & Willy the High Nelly Cycle Revivers 087-2589974.

The event is being organised by Martin and Willy, the High Nelly Cycle Revivers, who are encouraging as many people as possible to take part in what promises to be a memorable and fun-filled day.
