    Twas a good run alright. We were lucky with the weather. I'm amazed at some of the people and bikes that tackled it - they surely must have only been doing sections of it? We left Killorglin after a fella in jeans, a jumper, and a wooly hat on an old mountain bike, and he made it into cahirciveen as we were about to leave after buttered brack and a few buckets of tea. He didn't seem to have even broken a sweat despite what must have been a much tougher cycle then we had on road bikes in a mini pelothon.

    Final descent from Molls Gap wasn't the craic it should have been - got stuck behind a few cars:(

    This was my first attempt at a spin of this nature since taking up cycling just under a year ago, this was a great experience - but yes, to be honest, challenging, (neck pain, bum pain etc). I really enjoyed the help and support though and was never far from a helpful wheel or words of encouragement.
