Joe Barr took part in an ultra marathon cycle challenge – Race Around Ireland - which tested endurance, strength and mental toughness. He was determined to finish and even win the toughest, and most grueling cycling event ever to be held in Ireland, and he won!

Joe rode in support of the Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children.

The Race Around Ireland is a time trial consisting of 1350 miles of open roads, non stop and over some of Ireland’s largest mountains taking in magnificent scenery and passing some of Ireland's most famous landmarks. With Elite riders finishing in four days and the event cut off point at 120 hours this poised to be the toughest challenge in today. The event will circumnavigate the coastal line of anti - clockwise starting in Navan Co Meath on Tue 15th Sept and finishing back in Navan at some point on the following Sunday for the top riders.
