  • The long haul......2016

    I'm almost ready.

    1/. Packing my bag and stuff to service the car on Wednesday evening.
    2/. Driving from Lahinch Co. Clare (on the Atlantic coast - you can't go much further west in Europe) to Limerick Thursday morning - about 42 miles. Going from the office to Tallow Co. Waterford Thursday lunchtime - just over 60 miles.
    3/. Quick oil change for 79L820 and I'm then on the road for Kilkenny c.70 miles. Overnight there.
    4/. Friday morning Malty arrives and we're off to Dublin Port. About 90 miles.
    5/. Fast ferry to Holyhead leaves 2.30pm. Arrives 4.30pm.
    6/. Spin up to Morecombe area for overnight Friday. 163 miles
    7/. Will be in Heaves Hotel Sat morning. A mere 19 miles.

    Then we'll do The Lakes Tour all going well.

    The long journey back begins Sunday morning at about 10am. It'll be Tuesday evening before I get home.

    Sounds crazy but I'm looking forward to this

    Round trip must be close to 1000 miles.

                          Apart from the Tour I'll be doing over 1400 miles. Not sure if I am looking forward to that part...
