Our scheduled "Cycling for Softies" weekend in May was a huge success and glorious sunshine all weekend added immensely to the overall enjoyment factor. For the remainder of the year we are delighted to organise this activity option for groups of 20 or more.
Total price of this package 'Cycling for Softies' is €215pps including 2BB1D, 2 guided cycles, bike hire each day, return coach transfers on both days, entrance to Clonmacnoise & 2 packed lunches. Enjoy a late checkout at 4pm on the day of departure. Please note: Helmets are not supplied but it would be preferable to bring your own if possible.
We like to think that on a weekend like this, you can be challenged but not to the point that you will never venture up on a saddle again. Our emphasis is on having fun, meandering quiet country roads enjoying stunning scenery on both days with very different landscapes. Your guides will take you off the beaten track and make sure your experience is a memorable one.
Sample Itinerary: On Saturday morning, everybody meets in reception to depart for Leamonaghan by mini coach at 10.30am. A gentle cycle commences with a short break at the 11th century St. Manchans Shrine in Boher.
Next, it's off on the 'Old Pilgrim's Way' where you will be treated to an elevated view of nature at its best, the cycle ends at the historical site of Clonmacnoise. On arrival enjoy a specially prepared packed lunch and if you wish to explore the monastic site you have the freedom to do so.
At the end of your rewarding day, the entire group will be whisked back by coach to the Tullamore Court Hotel for some down time, a hot shower, good food in the Windmill Restaurant and plenty of time to relax and socialise in the Lounge Bar.
Sunday morning 10.30am takes you to different terrain where you will be brought by mini coach to Lough Boora Parklands, where a relatively easy track will be chosen to showcase the beauty of the area with a packed lunch to keep you motivated.
A transfer back to the Tullamore Court Hotel is arranged where you can relax and revel in your achievement over the weekend.
