Ok guys, behind the scenes 92KK and myself have been planning a meet and ride for a couple of days now.

Meeting point is Stradbally Fayre Cafe, Stradbally, Co. Laoise. (N80 Portlaoise to Carlow about 10k from the M7 at Portloaise). 9.45 am 11/8/12.

From there we will take a route, to be decided on the day to suit all parties, maybe through Carlow of Wicklow for a couple of hours.

All are welcome, camping available at my place for anyone who fancies it.

Looking forward to it immensly bounce

Just found this posting.
Any room for a little one?
The forecast for Saturday is good and I had thought of a day trip to Donegal but might head down to the meetup instead.
It's only about 145 miles from home and if I get out of my pit early enough I can make it down in time.
Are you expecting many to turn up?

Actually 2nd and 9 minutes Ned. At least that's what it took me to do the 308kms from Galway (west coast) to my home on the east coast today....all on my trusty bullion brick.

ComberJohn & SG Mayhew definitely room for you - it will be great to see you there. I've got a lumpy paddock or a flat lawn for camping - Even got two spare two mans if you dont feel like lugging a tent.

For anyone planning making a night of it we can pick up a few Burgers and brewskis on the way then crank up the Aussie style outback grill when we get here ( in deference to our Aussie supporters!).

We may have another K1 rider from the south east Scotty. TBC tomorrow.

I'll PM my mobile number to all of you for direct contact if you need it.

Our motto for the day....."Carpé BM!" roundel

Welcome Tom. It would be great to have you along. I've sent you a Personal Mail with my number, meanwhile pop in to the New Members section and introduce yourself and your bike as is the custom on this forum. That's necessary for a couple of reasons.

Delighted to see your first post is a positive response and just in time for our first meet up.

Meeting point....

Stradbally Fayre



These are all roads and runs, discussed between 92kk and myself, cobbled into one route, Which maybe altogether too long given the journey to the start point, we can chop, change & fine tune it at the meeting point depending on peoples wants and needs on the day. That's up to you guys.


Routes Map on Google


In the words of Baldrick "I have a cunning plan" for other routes and some sightseeing if those don't suit!

That is really a fantastic route. You have put a lot of work into it.

I have at various times travelled all of it and it reminds me of the scenic train route from Dublin to Rosslare. Three hours by train to do what you drive in an hour and a half but what a route. It is also a favourite steam train run as well.

I printed the map and 174km is just perfect. From Cork it is about 100 miles/162km to Stradbally, takes me well under 2 hours.......but watch for speed. M8 is notorious for cameras and it is easy to let the right hand run away on long rolling curves. The trouble with a motorway is that you have to go fast to feel the curves.

Are we looking at a lunch stop at Glendalough Hotel????? Weather map [www.met.ie/forecasts 5 day] looks good for a dry day there.

Looking forward to this a lot!!!

Good to see you too. In fairness 88KE did all the work and the organising and it would not have happened without the background work. All we need now is some good Irish sunshine and we are made.

Electric Monk this is great!

Weather looks great and the route is fantastic. I am really looking forward to it. I plan on being there a little early.

Good to see you are all sorted.

7: Alyn form Ardcavan on a K1! I'm Going to hook up with him on the way over. (Hasn't got the forum registration sorted yet but that'll follow)

Scottie.ie unable to make it on His K1 due to ill health - he was going to trailer it and do a short spin but after a chat on email he decided discretion is the better part of Valour. (Hope you're better for the next time, Scottie First Irish meetup is happening! 112350 )

Vis lunch, Glendalough is a good point to aim at 92KK - there are a few options within a stone's throw of the Round tower. The Glendalough hotel, The heather restaurant (all day full irish and the like), Lynham's pub in Larragh and a coffe shop beside. So something to suit all pockets.

The suns out, the temperature is up & the roads are dry (problem now is all my gear is too bloody warm Embarassed )

I've got my handycam charged and will try the small helmet cam too for the fun.

88KE[strike]

I went on a 270 mile run the same Friday as 88KE. I took out all the thermal linings and only had a shirt and jeans under. I was snug right up to 11pm when I got home. I have left it all out but will bring it just in case. Was worth mentioning that as it looks like it will be warm.

I havent got around to cam or bluetooth yet so no voice communication......blissful solitude.

thanks for the maps and stuff , gives us mob ..."down under" a bit of an insight to your end of the world

cheers you guys ...looks like a fun time to be had ....crikey i'm already excited ...First Irish meetup is happening! 112350

Thanks for the encouragement Charlie. I was delighted to get back from the west last night and log in to see such a great response form everyone.

Re the map if you drop down the box in the top r/h corner where it says traffic and choose "Terrain" you'll get a better idea of why I chose these routes.

Well I've "polished me rocket" so to speak and I'm off to lay out a few things for the morning to aid a quick getaway.

Well

Looking forward to it immensly bounce

88KE

couple of hours... Ireland??!! aren't u going to fall off the edge by then? SmileSmile

I could not resist picking this one up again since it was started by 88KE....how could we fall off the edge...we have a natural barrier around the perimeter to stop us falling off. Has no one ever noticed these beautiful sunrise and sunset shots taken at the waters edge......sitting outside a pub enjoying a nice cool beer? These are designed to create a natural barrier to us falling off. I believe 90% of the population live within 30 miles of the coast so they definitely work.
