Andy's Reverse Run Success
Andy’s supporters were over the moon on the day! The cheers could be heard all through Ballydesmond
A large crowd had gathered in Ballydesmond on Easter Sunday 9th April at 12 o’clock to cheer on Andy Moynihan as he started his Reverse Car Run in aid of Pieta in memory of Michael Murphy. He was led out by Seargent Paul Lynch, a convoy of motorbikes and support cars.
Using only the wing mirrors of the Skoda Enyaq kindly provided by E Tarrant & Sons of Banteer, Andy travelled through Kiskeam, Boherbue, Newmarket, and Kanturk, where the entire team took a break for a while to catch up and take a breather.
Andy continued on his journey with his entourage through Banteer, Millstreet, Cullen, and Knocknagree. He maintained a speed of approx 33km an hour along the route. Once again, a crowd had turned out to welcome Andy back into Ballydesmond, as he completed his 76km backwards journey by 3:30.
Andy would like to thank everyone who was involved in making this event a fantastic success and a memorable day. With over €16,000 raised so far, people have been beyond generous.
Andy backs through Bally!
