For one adrenaline-fueled day, Catalyst are taking on a bold challenge and we’re calling on our community for help.
We’re supporting local tech founders who are taking on the 26 Mountains 2 Mayo Challenge and visiting the highest point of each county in Ireland in support for Cancer Fund for Children.
At Catalyst, we’re matching their ambition with one of our own:
Our goal? To cycle an incredible 1,185 miles in 10 hours – the equivalent of cycling the distance between the 26 peaks to Mayo using seven high-performance spin bikes across our three locations – Titanic Quarter, Bedford Street and Derry~Londonderry.
