tour reports » Ireland May 2019

So Mrs Bravo and I have been looking forward to this for months.

We're on our way to meet up with our Irish friends from the old SV1000 forum. We meet up every couple of years and it's our turn to visit them.
We left home yesterday,headed across to the A1 on the A47,went north a few miles, got on to the A606,past Oakham,Melton Mowbray into Nottingham,then a blast along the A50 to Stoke where we carried on the A500 till we picked up the A51 to Chester,turning left onto the A55 towards North Wales. In all the years I've been driving I've never seen Colwyn Bay... Stunning. Had some fun through the tunnels .
Ended up at our hotel and had a nice boozy night.

Got on the ferry at Holyhead got off at Dublin and headed down to Kildare to meet up with Sean,Pauline, Stuart,Aynsley, Greg and Gerry.
We headed off down to Killarney in a making progress sorta style.

Got to our digs in Killarney safely despite the rain and went out for dinner and a night on the lash20190516_192504.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

So our Glorious Leader Sean took us out for 180 hard miles today,awesome roads,awesome views. There was one road up to Priests Leap that had my ring piece nipping up,gravel and grass is not the best habit for the RS. Them GS riders can go to fuck!

We had a great evening out on the lash with the Irish boys,got in at 0130,back on the road at 0800.

Some random pictures, perhaps I should post when I'm sober.

We were all a bit worse for wear this morning so decided to delay our departure an hour or so. It was raining as we left. Nine bikes left,nine made it home https://www.relive.cc/view/rt10005249616

Bit shorter day today but a couple of mountain passes thrown in for good measure

So Michelle and I head home tomoz,we're away early so didn't have too much to drink. We've had a lovely time,rode some great roads with old friends and made some new ones too. That's what I love about motorcycles, the people who ride them.(if this sounds gushy I lied about not drinking too much).

Looks like a great trip Bravo, feeling the need for a Road trip so am very jealous.
I really must get back to Ireland
