The following poem was read at the service by the celebrant, Father John H
McCormack:
My bike to me is a thing of joy,
more than just an expensive toy.
It carries me here and there and back
on a road, a lane or cycle track.
I push the pedals and the wheels whizz along,
my heart soars with a joyous song.
Cares pass me by, my mind is clear,

my bike takes me where I choose to steer.
Moving as one in the fresh open air,
a physical exercise without compare.
Cycling keep me healthy, happy and fit
perfect reasons for doing it.
So cycling to me is a wonderful thing,
in summer, autumn, winter and spring.
The hills may be hard with the wind in my face

but cycling is something that I will never replace.
