Kilkenny Recreation & Sports Partnership invites everybody to Spin For Your Bling as part of Bike Week 2026

This is a FREE virtual cycling event. All you have to do is get on your bike and cycle 40k by May 18th. There are many safe places in County Kilkenny and Kilkenny City to achieve this and enjoy being out and about on your bike. It’s easy to do now that the brighter Spring evenings are here and the weather has improved.

You can do this event in one single spin or multiple spins. It can be done solo, with friends or family. There is no time pressure – it’s not a race. Just accumulate 40k on  your bike over a few weeks and you get the Bling! KRSP have had a special medal designed for this event and you will be able to collect it on proof on your device (phone, watch, Garmin etc) that you have cycled 40k. You must then upload proof to a form which will be sent out to all register participants . Registrations are limited to 200 entries.

This event is open to seasoned cyclists, new cyclists, adults & children and people who haven’t cycled for a while.  Please note that parents of children under the age of 18 must register their child. PLEASE NOTE: You are obliged to cycle safely at all times. Wear a helmet and obey the rules of the road. Please be respectful and courteous to other road users. Tips on cycle safety can be found here:  Cycling Safety | Transport for Ireland

This event is open to people resident in Kilkenny City and County only. Get friends, family, work colleagues to sign up and you can all achieve 40k and spin for your bling. Please note: Spin For Your Bling medals must be collected from KRSP, 5 Dean Street Kilkenny, R95 HD79 between Monday May 18th and Friday May 22nd (9.30am to 5pm each day).
