For an amazing charity that do some great work.

This years annual Slane Spinners Sportive honors the legacy of one of our beloved founding members, Killian Galligan, who sadly passed away last year, Killian’s passion for cycling and his community left a lasting impact, he inspired many to take up the sport and mentored so many to achieve their goals and beyond!
We have two great routes this year to choose from, both of which were favorites of Killian’s!
We will be sharing the proceeds between the two charity’s nearest to Killian’s heart, SOSAD and Slane Meals on Wheels.
So please join us on May 4th at our new venue, Slane GFC, Monknewtown Slane, for this very special event in honor of a very talented and dedicated clubman, and friend to all, Killian Galligan
