SUMMARY:Fort2Fort Charity Cycle
DESCRIPTION:The annual Fort2Fort Charity Cycle returns for its 13th year\, and will take place on Saturday\, 8th June\, starting at Camden Fort Meagher\, with a choice of routes around Cork Harbour. Cyclists of all abilities are welcome\, and they can choose to cover 60km\, 90km or 120km.\n\n\n\nThe popular sportive will once again raise vital funds for the Mercy University Hospital Foundation's Cancer CARE Centre\, and four Cork City and County Lions Clubs (Cork\, Carrigaline\, Cobh and Bishopstown)\, as well as Carrigaline Men's Shed and Passage West Men's Shed. Since its inception in 2012\, Fort2Fort has raised more than  380\,000 for local beneficiaries\, and  welcomed over 5\,000 cyclists from 14 different counties across Ireland.

With views around Cork Harbour that can rival any in the world\; and the uniqueness of a ferry ride incorporated into the mix\; I would encourage anyone considering participating to come join us for what promises to be a very memorable day."\n\n\n\nSponsors of 2024 Fort2Fort are Cork County Council\, Ronan Daly Jermyn\, Carbon Group\, Radisson Blu\, Ahern Roberts O'Rourke Solicitors\, Kelloggs\, Green Circle Marketing Ltd\, MCK EI\, Cork Truck Services\, and Mallow Road Motors.\n\nAn early bird registration fee of  45 is available until 1st May.
