500 homeless players from 48 nations would ultimately be selected to represent their country in Cape Town, South Africa—coming from such disparate parts of the world as war torn Afghanistan, the slums of Kenya, the drug rehab clinics of Dublin, Ireland, the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina, the overflowing public shelters of Madrid, Spain, and the unforgiving city of St. Petersburg, Russia, where the homeless have no rights or identity.

These superheroes are heading from France to Rome, on their bicycles. They’re funding the trip themselves, so that all fundraising goes straight to the Irish Cancer Society.

Main website: www.flightoftheearlscycle.com. And they have a pretty entertaining blog too.

Most importantly, you can donate at www.mycharity.ie/event/flight-of-the-earls-cycle/.

Great stuff from RTE, put your Lisbon questions up on YouTube and they might ask them on the prime time special next week.

Send us your question about the Lisbon Treaty and it might get asked on next Tuesday’s special interactive Prime Time. Mark Little has the details on how you can do it.

They have a web site up for the special on rte: http://www.rte.ie/news/features/lisbontreaty/primetime.html and a youtube user. Super duper stuff, and exactly what I was getting at in the rte embed post. Super hero Damien Mulley has a comment on it too.
