Bradley Renault Giro D’Galway two-day 360km cycle tour of Galway to raise funds for Jigsaw Galway youth mental health service will take place this year on October 18/19.
Launched this week, the four-stage, 360km charity cycle tour will loop around the county with stage stops in Clifden, Tuam, Portumna and Gort before finishing at the Bradley Renault showrooms on the Dublin Road in Galway city.

“The Bradley Renault Giro D’Galway is going to be an amazing cycle and an incredible challenge for all cyclists who take part,” says Justin McDermott of Jigsaw Galway.
“You experience what life is truly like as a cycling pro. Two long days in the saddle cycling 180km each day, staying in a team hotel, Renault support vehicles, Giro D’Galway branded gear, welcoming crowds at each stage stop, and the euphoria of completing a serious cycling challenge. Most importantly cyclists will be raising vital funds for Jigsaw Galway and spreading the message of positive mental health across Galway.
“We are honoured and delighted that Robert Bradley and the team in Bradley Renault have come on board as our title sponsor. It’s fantastic to have a partner who has such enthusiasm for the Giro D’Galway, and also shows incredible support and commitment to our work supporting young people’s mental health and well-being in Galway.”
