    As HAVEN require a set amount to be collected the vast majority will go to HAVEN and once this target is met the Nire will get the rest. Percentage wise maybe 90-10 to HAVEN.

    Did this today, really terrific day. The Nire Valley was smashing in it's autumn colours.
    Great route, well marshalled and good grub, showers and bike wash.
    Well done to all involved.
    Bigger and better next year hopefully!
