Anything in Limerick this weekend?

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

I'm going to be in Limerick this coming weekend (starting Friday 29th June) and am looking for a good warm-up event in advance of the Ring of Kerry the following weekend. I heard something about a Limerick to Doonbeg charity cycle that somehow involves Sean Kelly...anyone know anything about that? Can I just join in or do I need to have a sponsorship card? Or perhaps there is some regular Saturday morning group ride I can just turn up to? I'm ideally looking for something in the 100km sort of distance but beggars can't be choosers.

There's nothing planned - so far as I know - for this weekend as regards cycling in Limerick.

You can cycle from Limerick to Doonbeg : go Limerick-Ennis, take a left in Ennis and go out the coast road to Doonbeg.
Hard road from Ennis to Doonbeg : winding route, irregular surface and very busy with holiday traffic at this time of year.

The next major event re Sean Kelly is the North Tipperary Wheelers ride :
in mid-July if you're around.
Let me know and I will post the details.

The thing I was talking about is organised by BDO Simpson-Xavier - an accountancy firm apparently.
