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.

Quick Answer

Michael Fryer and Keith Hall successfully completed the 2026 Belmullet to Northampton Charity Cycle, covering 690.15km and climbing 4,984m over five days. This challenging event raised nearly ÂŁ5,000 for The McCarthy-Dixon Foundation, with the full team contributing to a total of ÂŁ25,000 for the charity. Radius Group proudly supported the initiative as a Gold Sponsor for the second consecutive year, with both Michael and Keith being part of their team.

And the final stats give a pretty good idea of just how tough the challenge was:

đźš´ 690.15km ridden
⛰️ 4,984m of climbing
⏱️ 29 hours and 37 minutes in the saddle
đź’Ş 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 ÂŁ5,000 so far, with the other riders raising an incredible ÂŁ25,000 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:
