Help Daniel Connolly Represent Ireland at the 2025 ISDE

Hi, my name is Daniel Connolly, and I am a two-time Irish Enduro Motorcycle Racing Champion. This year I will be representing Ireland at the 2025 International Six Days of Enduro (ISDE) in Italy – a race considered to be the Olympics of Enduro racing. The best riders from around the world go head-to-head over six grueling days, pushing their limits on the international stage.

Last year, I had the honour of competing in my first ISDE and brought home a Silver Medal. This year, I’m going back with my sights set firmly on Gold. Representing my country at this level is the dream, and I'm giving it everything I’ve got.

To prepare for this world-class challenge, I’ve been competing in the British Enduro Championship in the UK, where I’m currently ranked in the top five in my class. Every race, every training session, and every ride is part of the journey toward Italy.

However, the costs associated with competing at this level quickly add up - travel, bike maintenance, parts, gear, accommodation, entry fees, and more. While I’m incredibly grateful to have support from Clonmel Off Road - Irelands main importer of Beta Motorcycles, who’ve been amazing with helping out with my bike and parts – this race still comes with a significant financial burden.

How You Can Help

I’m setting up this GoFundMe to ask for your help in raising funds toward the costs of competing at the 2025 ISDE. Any amount you can contribute – big or small – will go directly toward helping me represent Ireland on the world stage. If you can’t donate, a share of this campaign would be a huge help!

Thank you for your support,

Daniel Connolly
