Dennis O'Neill & Friends Riding in Charity Cycling Event in Ireland: The Ring Of Kerry Charity Cycle

On July 1st, Dennis O'Neill will be bicycling around the Ring of Kerry in Ireland along with his daughter Jackie O'Neill, his brother John, and a group of 30 clients, other family members, and friends in order to raise money for a local organization CRITICAL EMR (Emergency Medical Response). The Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle is an iconic cycling event now in its 41st year. The ride takes place along one of the world’s most renowned touring routes -- The Ring of Kerry, an incredibly scenic 105-mile (170 km) coastal road in County Kerry (Southwest Ireland). The ride starts and ends in the beautiful and famous town of Killarney.

Dennis and company will be riding as part of the team "Kate's Pedlars" to raise money for CRITICAL EMR (To Donate, Click Here). Dennis O'Neill's family is from Country Kerry, Ireland and he is still very close with his many cousins living in Ireland. In April of 2022, Dennis' cousin Catriona (Kate) O'Sullivan passed away suddenly at her home in Derryleigh, Sneem, Kerry. This was a very distressing and traumatic moment in the lives of her family. Catriona's family received exceptional care and assistance from Critical EMR's Community Air Ambulance. Thus, Kate's family decided to raise money for this worthy service which has provided essential care in their community for many years. Without the Air Ambulance, rural communities like Sneem, would be in a precarious position when in need of emergency services.
