Cycle for a Cause That Changes Lives

Bark & Ride is an annual charity cycling event in aid of Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind, taking cyclists through the stunning landscapes of the Burren in County Clare.

Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or a first-timer, our three route options offer a challenge for every level. Every kilometre you ride raises vital funds for guide dog training, autism assistance dogs, and family support services.

Join us on Saturday 26th September 2026, starting from The Connacht Hotel, Galway.
