We had an excellent meet up at Stradbally Fayre in 2012 and 2013 on the Saturday after the August Bank Holiday. 2012 was the first time of the Irish Eccentrics meeting up.
This year the Saturday falls on 9th August? Are we still on for it? My own plan is to head up to Nore Valley on Friday 8th for a camping weekend. For those who have never been, Nore Valley is very biker friendly, has excellent showers, indoor television lounge, campers kitchen with cooker/ware, microwave, washing up facilities and home baking for breakfast. Camps pitches are elevated over the river facing the rising sun. There is a crazy golf and I will put up a bottle of wine for the winner of a round of golf, just to get the (golf) ball rolling!! Bjorn, 88KE and myself have been and enjoyed it.
There are some B&Bs not too far.
Tom Foley mentioned the Faugheen 50 Road Races the same weekend so if there is consensus we could meet at Stradbally Fayre and head off to enjoy some sport as well. Nore Valley is close enough to do both, maybe a BBQ evening at the camp site.
So, any thoughts on the subject? Any takers?
