Ring of Kerry Cycle 7th July

Ever up for a new challenge a number of members of the Hillwalking Club together with some family & friends participated in this very popular event at least 20+. This cycle covers 180km (112 miles) and the organisers say there were 8,200 participants. Quite an achievement for many of those who had not cycled beyond 100km previously.  Contratulations to all who finished.  Below are some of us at the finish still standing!!!   Michael C

Comeragh Challange Walk 7th July

Well done to all 12 members of B.H.C who completed the Comeragh Challange.  This walk extends for approx 42 kilometers and climbs 2000 meters.  Of the 46 who started the challenge, 10 changed to a different walk at the Nire Valley, so 34 finished challenge, which gives B.H.C one third of the people that finished.
