The Diabetes Ireland Research Alliance in partnership with JDRF UK would like to invite you and your members to take part in these exciting challenges.
The Diabetes Research Alliance (DIRA) was set up in 2008 as a subsidiary of the Diabetes Federation of Ireland, the national charity supporting people with diabetes in Ireland. DIRA has the specific aim of promoting, supporting and funding research related to the causes, prevention and cure of diabetes. It will focus on increasing the level of Irish based diabetes research and will primarily be a funder for all types of diabetes research through the provision of grants. For more information log onto www.diabetesresearch.ie
Alpe D’Huez is a 150 km, one-day cycle up one of the most famous ascents in the world, to raise funds to find the cure for type 1 diabetes. From the crystal waters of Lake Geneva, we’ll ride our way to the summit of L’Alpe D’Huez, travelling some of the finest cycling on the globe, just 5 days before the 2011 Tour de France riders compete for glory on the same climb.
The event includes:
• Optional two days of extra cycling through the Alps
• Four-star hotel accommodation
• Pick-up Thursday to Saturday from Geneva Airport
• Drop-off Monday to Geneva Airport
Limited to just 50 riders, this is an exclusive opportunity to join a group of cycling enthusiasts from around the globe and help raise funds to find the cure for Type 1 Diabetes.
For more information about the ride and the fund raising targets, please refer to the Alpe D’Huez Global Cycle Challenge Itinerary.
