Headin out on sat morning. Swords - Balbriggan - Naul - Ballyboughal - Swords. Bout 50k. Only returning to the bike so will be quite leisurely.

Greystones to Kilmac or Ashford, Then Roundwood Laragh, Sally Gap, Roundwood and back to Kilmac.

80 or so km..Maybe a stop along the way for a shot or 2 of Espresso.

Probably an early enough start so as to enjoy the weather for the rest of the day:cool:

Heading out Saturday & Sunday: 8am from Terenure via - Edmonston Rd (8.10am) - Cruagh - Kilakee - Sally Gap - Laragh - Wicklow Gap - Boherbreena - Terenure.

Approx 100km. Leaving early to get back in time for Spurs game.

That route from Swords is a good cycle. did somthing similar a few weeks back but went through Garristown after Naul and back to Swords. Never realised there was so many sheep and cows in that part of the world

Going to be heading out in the morning from Dundrum, prob around 10

Will probably try the Glencullen / Viewing Point / Sally Gap route then down to Laragh for some lunch, will decide then how I feel and where to go. Hoping to do near 100kms

I'll go out, but I'm only going out for a leg loosener, definitely no more than 60km. Probably a solo run unless Planet-x or someone who normally like those spins is heading out.

Sounds perfect, I'd be heading in from celbridge anyway which would round it up a good bit.

Saw you on your way home, was just heading up from Dundrum and you were going past, just after 10am. Was only heading out then myself

Was that you going over the bridge? hello. was definitely a better idea to head out later, the weather was phenomenal.

Yep, that was me in the new boards kit.

It was a smashing day out there alright - the weather forecast said there could be showers, but it was bright all day.

Shattered now though, longest spin in a while

weekend spin? 14/15th
