Today’s ride on Komoot Today, I had the pleasure of riding with @rickyroule whom I met in Killarney station (along with @eileen.on.a.bike). Richard was also in Dungarvan last night, so we got in touch and rode to Waterford. We’d spend the whole day on the Waterford Greenway along with hundreds of others who were walking, …
Today’s ride on Komoot I made my breakfast, packed and headed into town, down THAT hill and out of Youghal. I was on a fairly major road, but there was no traffic until I came to the really major road, where I’d be for a few kms. If I’d stayed on it, I would have …
Leaving Cork was quick and easy. There’s bike paths and lanes that link up with a Greenway that follows the river Lee until you are well clear of the city. There’s a much shorter way to Youghal, but I wanted to visit the old port town of Cobh. That’s where many of the migrant ships …
Another lazy start with a really nice breakfast at the Sea View B&B. I rolled down the hill and had a look around Dingle. It’s a nice place with a harbour, some tourist shops and a lot of pubs but nothing that I needed at that moment. I made my way up the hill and …
Today’s ride on Komoot This was a very full day. I visited significant family places and rode up (and down) one of the most stunning mountain passes I’ve ever seen. It started as I left the B&B on the edge of town. Gina, the host is a bit of an historian and was interested in …
Today’s ride on Komoot Timing was everything today. I had a short ride, but knew that rain was arriving just after lunch time but then I couldn’t check in until 6pm at the Airbnb. In the end, my timing was perfect all ’round. I had the luxury of a sleep in at the nice pub …
Just to recap, I have the 2021 Koga World Traveller with Rohloff and Gates Belt. I’ve changed the handlebars and put on my trusty Brooks saddle but that’s about all that I’ve modified. I’ve published earlier reviews here on this site. TLDR: It’s a great bike. Both fun and dependable. Really well thought out and …
Today’s ride on Komoot I went to Tesco last night and stocked up on breakfast things, so I was looking forward to that. Not a great sleep last night, so I was my usual slow self in the morning. I feel like I’m getting lots of things done in the morning until I look at …
Today’s ride on Komoot It was cool and foggy this morning, so no hurrying from me. The fog meant that it was going to be a nice day but initially, everything was wet. I was near the Cliffs of Moher and looking forward to the 77kms to Limerick. I headed into town, took some photos …
I thoroughly enjoyed some home cooking for the two nights while I was here but today, there was plenty of food to finish off for breakfast. I eat lots of food on tour, and breakfast is often my favourite meal, so I dug into eggs,toast, muesli, yoghurt and bananas and got ready to go. What …
