<div>Chairman of Classic Bike Racing Ireland – devoted husband, father, and friend to so many.
</div>
<div>A message from the Classic Bike Racing Ireland family
</div>
<div>This August, our chairman and dear friend Gavan Duffy suffered a devastating accident while competing at the Gedinne Classic Races in Belgium. What began as another weekend doing what he loves most—racing and supporting the sport—became a life-changing event for Gavan, his wife Tracy, and their two children.
</div>
<div>Following the accident, Gavan spent several weeks in hospital in Belgium before being transferred to The Mater Hospital in Dublin, where he continued to receive treatment for extensive injuries. He is now back in Ireland and currently undergoing specialist rehabilitation at the National Rehabilitation Hospital.
</div>
<div>Gavan’s injuries are life-changing, and he will face a future using a wheelchair. Despite everything, he continues to show immense courage, positivity, and determination as he works hard through his rehabilitation.
</div>
<div>Who Gavan is to us
</div>
<div>Anyone who knows Gavan knows that he is the heart and soul of Classic Bike Racing Ireland.
</div>
<div>As chairman, he has given countless hours to promote and support the sport, keeping classic racing alive for riders and fans across Ireland and beyond. Whether he’s organising meetings, helping fellow racers, or encouraging newcomers, Gavan’s dedication, kindness, and good humour shine through in everything he does.
</div>
<div>He’s not only a leader within our club but also a loyal friend, a devoted husband, and a loving dad 
</div>
<div>Why we’re asking for your help
</div>
<div>As Gavan continues his rehabilitation, the family faces enormous challenges ahead. Their home will need major renovations to make it wheelchair-accessible so that the family can bring Gavan home where he belongs.
</div>
<div>The financial and emotional strain of these changes is immense. Your donations will go directly toward helping Gavan and his family with:
</div>
<div>• Essential home renovations and accessibility adaptations
</div>
<div>• Ongoing medical and rehabilitation costs not fully covered by insurance
</div>
<div>• Mobility equipment and transportation needs
</div>
<div>• Financial support for the family during this difficult time
</div>
<div>How you can make a difference
</div>
<div>Gavan has always been the one supporting others—now it’s our turn to support him. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a real and lasting difference to this wonderful family’s future.
</div>
<div>If you can’t contribute financially, please consider sharing this page with your friends, family, or on social media. Messages of support and encouragement also mean the world to Gavan, and family as they navigate the long road ahead.
</div>
<div>From all of us
</div>
<div>On behalf of Classic Bike Racing Ireland, we want to thank everyone for the incredible outpouring of love, kindness, and encouragement shown since Gavan’s accident. It has meant more to the family than words can express.
</div>
<div>Let’s come together once more as a community and help make it possible for Gavan to return home to the people who love him most.
</div>
<div>Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and continued support.
</div>
