The Pedaling Pensioner!

Eugene O'Leary - The Pedaling Pensioner

Fair play to him!

Eugene O’Leary is a 65 year old cyclist raising funds for Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin.

He’s attempting to raise €250k within the next year and a half for the hospital.

He is doing it in memory of his daughter Helen who passed away at the age of 19.

His daughter was a patient in the Children’s Hospital until she reached the age of 18 …. she then had to move on to an adult hospital.

Well done Eugene.

You can see Eugene’s schedule here!

Rest In Peace Helen …. you’ve got some dad there!

(P.S. Fellow bloggers might pop over to his blog and give him some moral support. Go on ….. you too Grannymar!)

    I recognise that pier!

    I didn’t see Eugene when he was there on the May Bank Holiday w/e but if I’m around over the June Bank Holiday, I’ll look out for him.

    I’ll tell him “Paddy sent me!”
