Ireland Bike Fest - Killarney

Ireland Bike Fest logo
Since 2006, The Gleneagle Hotel in Killarney, Co Kerry and Harley Davidson Ireland have been supporting Muscular Dystrophy Ireland with our Awareness and Fundraising activities.  This fundraising initiative has gone from strength to strength each year and has raised over €100,000 for MDI since its conception.  The 2012 rally of the now well established "Ireland Bike Fest" took place from 1st - 3rd June and raised a further €12,000 for MDI. 

MDI would like to thank the Staff and Management of the Gleneagle Hotel in Killarney for once again organising, hosting and sponsoring this event.  Thanks to everyone who sold and bought tickets and helped to make this event a great success.
