CHARITY champions are going to incredible lengths to support the Ian O’Connell Trust.
Scores of cyclists will set out on the 180km journey around the Ring of Kerry this Saturday to support the Killarney teenager who was paralysed from the shoulders down in a fall from his bicycle last August.
IAN-spired by his remarkable resolve during the rehabilitation process, Bernice McMonagle, from Killarney – AKA Mrs Mac – will cycle this butcher’s bike in the 35th annual Ring of Kerry Charity Cycle and she and meet fellow vintage cyclists along the route.
Money raised will be lodged to the Ian O’Connell Trust set up by the Spa GAA Cub. The fund will help meet his ongoing needs and the cost of any necessary adaptations to his home.
