    We decided against the Sally Gap after getting to Glencree. Visibility was brutal by the time we got there.

    It was brutal at times on Saturday. I've never been so cold. My teeth were chattering for the last 2 hours of my trip.

    It's never happened before, but when we were coming back I was saying I wish we were climbing because at least it would get us warmed up a bit.

    I was thinking the exact same on the way down the Wicklow Gap (we came at it from the Hollywood side). Then we headed up by Gleanmacnass Waterfall after that which felt great once I could feel my hands again, then the decent into Dublin chilled the bejesus out of us.

    Serious props for getting out to the Wicklow Gap on a day like that.
