The third annual Irish road adventure organised by Cannonball Overland will take place through Kerry on November 10th and 11th. 

Participants will stay at the Dingle Skellig Hotel. Previous adventure road trips have taken place form Dublin to Kells in 2021 and through Sligo in 2022.

Part of a movement named for American motorcyslist Erwin George “Cannonball” Baker, who crossed the United States from New York to Los Angeles in 54 hours, Cannonball Ireland was founded by Kildareman Alan Bannon in 2013 and has raised over €1m for charity.
