CYCLING enthusiasts turned out in good numbers on Saturday morning in Blennerville for the annual Jimmy Duffy Memorial Cycle.
Around 120 participants of varying ages set off from St Pats GAA Club to head to Castleisland and back in the cycle to remember the local musician and keen cyclist.
Jimmy was 67 years old when he died as a result of smoke inhalation after fire at his home on Church Street, Blennerville, in January 2010.
The cycle was followed by refreshments, tea and coffee in Quanes Bar Blennerville. The fun continued on Saturday night with anniversary Mass in Curraheen at 8pm and a music session in Quanes Bar, where food & refreshments were served. Scroll down for photos…
