About the Cause

Michael and Eamonn O’Hare seek to raise money for a cause close to home. Their brother Malachy has been living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) for almost 40 years, with the family experiencing first-hand the difficulties of such an unpredictable disease.

MS continues to be an area of interest for researchers, who are continuously pushing to find ways to stop disease progression and develop potential cures. For this ride, the brothers have partnered with a lead MS researcher from the University of Pennsylvania, and any donations will directly fund Dr. Amit Bar-Or’s groundbreaking research.
