In this special Performance Process x Geek Warning crossover, Dave Rome grills Ronan Mc Laughlin about every technical detail from his 3,000 km unsupported lap of Ireland. From aero bag hacks and drivetrain quirks to cleat regrets and a failed light, this is a deep dive into the tech setup behind a truly personal and punishing ultra-endurance ride. Ronan shares what worked, what didn’t, and what he’d change next time – all while reflecting on how the gear supported his mission to raise awareness for food allergy research.

The fundraiser is still open here, every contribution makes a real difference.

• £10 provides allergy education packs for a school
• £25 trains 50 teachers to support allergic kids
• £100 covers a life-saving dose of treatment for a child
• £1,500 funds six months on the life-changing Natasha Clinical Trial

Hitting the target, could fund 20 trial places for allergic children, and take a real step toward a future where no child has to live in fear of their food.
