We found that around Killarney and Gap of Dunloe, feckin awful for traffic, coaches getting wedged against motorhomes, foreign tourist driving right-hand drive rental cars on roads smaller than their backyard paths,Co Galway, Connemara and Donegal far quieter and some awesome wild camping by the beach overlooking Golan Head near Lettermullan and a super friendly hostel in Malin Beg

Yeah, I would probably get out early and get it done and hope to avoid it all, or as much as possible

going to Ireland would have me torn in two. i love biking but i also love fly fishing.


last year i watched a lot of this bloke https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbE...nrumjAtKBPZR2A from north west Ireland and fell in love with the idea of fly fishing over there.


like Chris i dont do camping any more unless i would be in the same spot for 3 or more days. i prefer hostels and B&B.

I agree Lance although haven't wet a fly in a while. I'd intended though to take my paddleboard wherever I went this year, including to Wales with the lads

Chris, not sure this will happen this year, but I'd certainly be up for a trip across your side of the water at some point. It was the 1980s I think the last time I was in Ireland on a motorbike and another visit must be well overdue!

Very little happening this year I feel I'm not in the position to afford it

I've attached my itinerary for August this year (covid permitting). I've removed the google maps links as they've got my address etc on them. Beery Bikey House is my workshop in Glasgow as start end end point.

Route takes in Mayo (glorious open twisties), Ring of Kerry inc 2 hill passes, Glenalough and Sally Gap

Some of it's new to me. Some of it I know well.

If anyone decides they want to tag on for bits or whatever...you know where I am.
