    Yeah. That road around Lough Gill would be fairly ropey!
    I did that cycle a few years ago now. Went out on the Carraroe side to Dromahair and came the lake (Calry side) side. It was a lovely cycle, surprisingly hilly (mind I was still smoking then!). I would say you really have to have your wits about you now with the volume of cars. At least dont time it during the morning and evening chicken run around the lake. :eek:

    Super cool.

    I'll aim to be "good enough" by June - that'll push me to improve.

    when I was living in Ballisodare myself the wife and the two kids used to cycle from Ballisodare to Union Wood and go trough the woods and you come out at Cooloney. Then back into Ballisodare that way. (you can cross under the dual carrageway) Was a brilliant Cycle I would recommend to anyone.
    I have one of the child seats on my bike and managed the off road stuff handy enough on a hybrid.

    Absolutely nothing my dear Gillie.

    But this particular helmet my mother is sending me is a rather high end model that I got for cheap after an intern at a cycle shop loaned it out by mistake once with a rental bike. I paid 20 bucks for a 70 dollar helmet. I wear it with pride!

    Plus postage!!!
    You'll probably get stung for import duty too!!!

    Cycling from Sligo to Rosses Point is lovely.
    Its pure flat most of the way.
    Just be careful around the sea at Cartron or you'll find yourself in it.
    Do it on a nice day and as you approach Rosses Point on your left the view out to Strandhill is lovely.
