The 2002 NCBI Irish Cycling Tour led by Sean Kelly will hit the streets shortly to raise much needed funds for the National Council for the Blind of Ireland (NCBI). With 80 participants already signed up and a target of €25,000 to raise, NCBI is calling all cyclists to get in gear for this tour and join Ireland's favourite cycling team - the Blazing Saddles.

Covering a distance of over 300 miles from Westmeath to Clare, Galway and Mayo over four days from Wednesday 11th - Saturday 14th September this is one challenge not to be missed. The fundraising target for participants is €850 which includes all meals, accommodation, insurance and transportation of luggage along the way.

The National Council for the Blind of Ireland (NCBI) is the primary service provider to the vision impaired population of over 6,500 in the Republic of Ireland.
