Irishman to ride Route 66 for charity again

Paul De Courcy of Waterford, Ireland, drove Route 66 in a motorcycle as part of the Charity Motorcycle Challenge in 2004.

Now he’s been asked to do it again for the Temple Street Children’s Hospital, according to the Waterford News & Star. He said yes.

“Back in 2004, I applied to do it and was delighted to be accepted to join a group from all over the country to take part. It was tough, there’s no doubt about it, especially the first few days when you’re travelling up to 400 miles per day.

“But it was a fantastic experience overall, a real once-in-a-lifetime thing that would stay with you forever. Hopefully, knowing what to expect and the fact that I’m ever more experienced this time round will be of benefit to me and I’ll find it a bit easier this year.
