Team Ruby 2

Well on the way to organising the Team Ruby 2 charity cycle ride, this year we're going from Galway in Ireland to Port Talbot, a distance of some 370 miles. We propose to stop off at various rugby clubs and camp the nights there in an effort to save money, committees willing. Going to drive out to Ireland in a few weeks, to trace the route and cal in at local rugby clubs to ask their permission.

Last time we rode we rose £40.000 for the Bwwthyn Newydd, Palliative Care Unit at Bridgend Hospital, we're currently in talks with the Noahs Ark Appeal in Cardiff to raise money for them this time around.
