Minor problem.
Shanny, the guy who was coming with me, doesn't think he'll get off early enough Friday to head up. What time do you think you'll be heading out for the spin on Saturday? I'm wondering if we started out early enough in the morning, would we get there in time?

Kickstart - I reckon 10:30am heading off - it's around 100miles of lazy bends. Do ye think ye can get there for 10:30?

I sent of a PM to Robbo65 to see if he wants to join us for our weekend, He is from Sligo so it is a short trip for him.

I was chatting to the flyingdutchman recently, alas he had to sell his 850 due to no work.

What about Kang??

Paddy - Kang can't make it. flyingdutchman was saying the TDM is gone but he has an old bmw and might join us if he can...I'll confirm with him if he does not see this.
I had not heard of Robbo65 so let me know if he can make it - he may even come along for the day?
Keep me posted on any additions..
Thanks

Yes both myself and my brother Phil are up for this. Hopefully will come over on the Friday, but if not will meet up with you on the Saturday.

Paddy & Jim im in Tobercurry so you are both more than welcome to stop for refreshments on the way through, better let me know what type of cake.

We have a motorcycle accessories & camping equipment shop so can do a good deal for anyone that needs equipment for this.

Alex that looks a good route, which way are you planning to ride it, clockwise or anti clockwise

Rob,
It never occured to me to go clockwise now that you mention it! However it might be an idea as it will save the best bit till last I believe...what do you think? I remember driving up that valley from Louisburgh to Delphi and it was incredible, so maybe we will go clockwise - good thinking 99

Well going anti clockwise you will get the stunning views as you ride from Louisburgh, but the views are just as good comming into Leenane on the N59 from Westport & like you say it saves the best to last.

[jim850wav]

Glad somebody knows were and what way we,ll be going

[apw99]

Best till last sounds good to me, we can see if anyone else has a preference on the day ....don't worry Jim your in safe hands..

[apw99]

Do you know if Crispy is joining us??

Hi paddy - I was onto Crispy but he will be away that weekend. Tried Kang as well but he can't make it either..I feel like a bounty-hunter!. But momentum is gathering...there might be a few late starters!
