Mike Naughton’s Ride for Kids | Galway News

Mike Naughton, a Galway software engineer and motorcycle enthusiast, is back for his second shot at the grueling Route 66 Motorcycle Challenge—this time with his girlfriend by his side. Covering 14 days, 9 states, and 4 time zones, he’s raising cash for the Children’s Health Foundation, already surpassing €19,500. His journey is deeply personal: driven by past experiences with brain injury and leukemia in his family, he channels his passion into charity through groups like Tribes MCC and endurance rides like the Long Day Down. Despite last year’s scorching 44°C temperatures, he’s fueled by the riders’ camaraderie—and the knowledge that every mile and euro makes real, life-changing impact for sick kids.
