Challenge Complete: Michael and Keith Finish 690km Charity Cycle
After five days in the saddle, Michael Fryer and Keith Hall have completed the 2026 Belmullet to Northampton Charity Cycle, for the second year running.
And the final stats give a pretty good idea of just how tough the challenge was:
🚴 690.15km ridden
⛰️ 4,984m of climbing
⏱️ 29 hours and 37 minutes in the saddle
💪 180.9km on the longest day
Starting on the west coast of Ireland, Michael and Keith joined the rest of The McCarthy-Dixon Foundation cycle team for the journey back to Northampton, finally crossing the finish line on Friday.
But, of course, the reason behind the challenge is what really matters.
Michael and Keith have raised just under £5,000 so far, with the other riders raising an incredible £25,000 between them for The McCarthy-Dixon Foundation.
A massive well done to Michael, Keith and everyone who took part. And a big thank you to everyone who has donated and supported them along the way.
We’re very proud to have supported the challenge as a Gold Sponsor for the second year running, as well as having two of our own team taking part.
There’s still time to donate if you’d like to help push the total even higher:
