Hi Folks.
It's taken a while to get all the bits sorted, but we finally presented Pieta House Events For Pieta House: Connacht with a Cheque for €6,650 on Wednesday evening. In the pictures attached are members of the Croke Park to Killimor Committee, Members of the GAA Club & Cyclists, and Joe Burke from Pieta House accepting the Cheque.

Once again, the event Committee would like to thank all of those who cycled, helped out and contributed to the event in a variety of different ways. It was very much appreciated by both Killimor GAA Club and Pieta House. To those who'll keep up the Biking, Happy and Safe Cycling for the Season ahead. 🚴🏼🚴🏼‍♀️👍🏻

As the event is wrapping up, with the sponsorship cards due tomorrow night, Friday, I want to put up the final post in relation to our hugely generous sponsors who were still coming on board after our hugely successful and enjoyable 181Km Cycle from Croke Park to Killimor In Association with Pieta House. One of the reasons for this event being so successful is down to the Generosity and Willingness of Businesses, both local and abroad who backed us from the outset. A massive THANK YOU to ALL!!

Pictured Below are some of the Main Men from last Saturday where BikeMarshals.ie marshalled the Croke Park - Killimor cycle in aid of Pieta House. BikeMarshals use events like this as a fundraiser to fund blood bikes around the country, and on Saturday one of our own bike ridden by Brian O'Donnell was called on to step in when another bike became unavailable. (ahem :) ) Pictured is our fearless leader - Ted O'Malley alongside Enda Kenny and the men of BikeMarshals.ie

On Behalf of everyone associated with Croke Park to Killimor in Association with Pieta House, we cannot Thank These Men enough. Right from the beginning when initial contact was made with Ted, he and the rest of the Bike Marshals were nothing but courteous, professional and had nothing but safe participation in mind. We cannot recommend them enough, and hats off to them for the excellent work they do fundraising for Blood Bikes.

Special Mention to Philip Kelly who also looked after the Dublin end of things and met us twice to go over the routes.

Bike Marshals were nothing but ultimate professionals. Could not recommend and thank them enough. Best of Luck with the rest of the events that ye do for 2017.
