MANOR West was buzzing yesterday as it welcomed over 100 cyclists taking part in the Tour de Munster.
The charity cycle is held every year in aid of Down Syndrome Ireland (DSI) and individual beneficiaries and sees amateur cyclists take on over 600km around the six counties of Munster.
The sun was shining as people gathered in the car park in the afternoon where there was family entertainment laid on, including a drum workshop, face painting and Mickey and Minnie Mouse meeting the kids.

The cyclists came in at around 5.30pm and received a great welcome, enjoying teas, coffees and sandwiches after travelling from Clare.
This year the charity cycle aims to raise €250,000 for DSI, with funds going towards providing vital services and facilities for people with Down Syndrome across Munster. Scroll down for photos…
