thanks a lot folks some great views there no doubt.i guess to see the best of any country you need to see it in glorious sunshine certainly not rain.the landscape sure has changed over the years but blame the greedy bankers and builders for that one they between them done there best to destroy our country.
but i'm glad to say we are still overall a friendly bunch by and large .i met two Canadians father and son last year that was touring around ireland they said it was one of the best tours they ever had, but i never got a chance to ask why. anyway maybe i should load up my tourer and see for myself i really don't know my own country by bike .
