Watch: Large crowds celebrate at Sydney Opera House to mark end of Roscommon man’s global cycle 

Hundreds of Irish people gather at Sydney Opera House to welcome Fergal across the finish line.

Large crowds gathered at Sydney Opera House today to celebrate the end of a Roscommon man’s two year charity cycle across the world.

Fergal Guihen’s mammoth 'Rossie to Aussie' 23,000km challenge has taken him through 28 countries and three continents over the last two years since leaving his native Arigna on March 10th 2024.

Hundreds of Irish people congregated at the iconic opera house to welcome the Arigna man across the finish line at about 2 p.m. (3 a.m. Irish time).
