Friends of Pat Halligan Cycle North County Dublin

I just wanted to post this here as a good few people on here would know Pat Halligan, and others might not know Pat but might be interested.

For those that do know him

There is a cycle being organized mostly as a way to show Pat that everyone supports him, but also to help raise funds for his recovery and rehabilitation after the bike crash in 2013.


The event is only small, with space for 200 people just to get together for a spin for Pat. If you knew him, it'd be great to see you there on the 9th May. You can see the details and sign up here: www.foph.ie

For those that don't know him

Pat Halligan is a cyclist from North County Dublin. In 2013 in an IVCA race, he was involved in what was really a freak accident in the way he crashed.
As a result, Pat suffered really bad head injuries, and now requires a lot of time and effort for his care and hopefully one day, recovery.

The reason I post this here is because it is something that could have happened to any of us, and I'd like to think that everyone would come together for any active cyclist that was injured in the same way while racing.

There's a small event being organised on the 9th May in North County Dublin to show support for Pat and help with his care and recovery. If you'd like to take part, it has all of the usual sportive features in terms of stops and food etc., and there's a draw you're entered into when you take part with some really great prizes from a lot of bike shops around Dublin.

It's being organised by some of his friends, and I'm just posting this here to try and help out for another cyclist.
