Dynamic Duo on the home straight

The Tipperary Tandem pair of Peter Ryan and Sean Hahessy have passed through Clonmel.

They’re aiming to become the first tandem to complete the Race Around Ireland – a 2,150 kilometre ultra-cycling event which is ranked among the toughest endurance events in the world.

Peter, from Drombane and Carrick on Suir man Sean left Meath on Sunday and have been getting by on just a couple of hours sleep each day. The dynamic duo have been as far north as Malin Head and as far south as Mizen Head on their trek.

A great crowd turned out to cheer them on as they entered Clonmel – at this point they still had around 360 kilometres to go!
