A group from work are planning a charity bike ride around Ireland in aid of Cancer & Leukemia in Childhood (CLIC). We plan to start cycling from Dublin on the 4th June 2005 and take 2 weeks to basically ride the circumference. Proposed overnight stops are as follows:-
1 Newrey 77.80miles 2 Belfast 71.50miles 3 Bushmills 81.10miles 4 Londonderry 61.80miles 5 Dunfanaghy 66.10miles 6 Donegal 79.40miles 7 Ballina 83.90miles 8 Galway 97.10miles 9 Limerick 64.50miles 10 Cork 65.70miles 11 Waterford 78.00miles 12 Wexford 44.60miles 13 Wicklow 57.30miles 14 Dublin 45.90miles However this may change as it's been pointed out that we have missed one of the most beautiful areas out (SW Penninsula). I would be grateful if you could let us have any advice, ideas for places to stop overnight, best routes from location to location, things to do in the evenings, etc. Cheers, Andy Birch Last edited by Andybirch : 30-03.-2005 at 08:09 PM. |
