David Mitchell, an actor in Ireland, will tour Route 66 on a BMW motorcycle with the Route 66 Challenge to raise money for Temple Street Children's Hospital in Dublin, according to Dublinpeople.com.
“My efforts this year are to assist the ICU in getting a CT scanner and we hope to raise close to the necessary target,” David said.
David's preparation has been elevated by support from BMW Ireland with the use of an F 650 GS Dakar motorcycle and BMW Motored Rider Equipment during his training.
The tour begins in October. Details of the Route 66 Challenge can be found here.
