Bellaghy man Dermot O'Kane is one of 18 cyclists taking on the 21 stages of the Tour de France to raise funds for a very worthy cause.
Dermot is the sole representative from Northern Ireland in the The Tour 21 class of 2023 having been selected from a pool of 400 applicants.
After months and months of training and fundraising, they set off from Bilbao last Saturday, 24th June on their way to tackle all 21 stages of the Tour de France route, just one week ahead of the professionals.
