duck man

thats me 2nd home it is

pm me or see me at the next ecosse rideout and I can tell you the bits to see / do depending on what it is your looking for

Although the NW200 is the north of the north (if that makes sense), is it the north you want to tour or the republic, how far down etc do you want to travel ?

Am travelling over on the Troon ferry at 10:05 on Thurs 10th May to Larne, have you booked the ferry yet ?

Last year Liz and I did this

http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.php?t=45886

It was aceness. Great roads and scenary, quite a bit further south than where you are going to end up for the NW200 I think. Its still worth considering its a beautiful part of the world.
