    had put it off for ages since i was a bit cowardly about climbs of any sort but decided to take this route (courtesy of gog who posted it a while back) and man up a bit

    http://connect.garmin.com/activity/80952762

    i've been missing out all this time!

    not familiar with this part of the country at all but a disappointed with myself for missing out on it for so long, usually head out towards meath/kildare.

    wanted to post to say thanks to eugene who took pity on me at the sally gap and gave a hand with fixing a puncture (faulty tube i think, couldn't inflate it, glad i had a second one).

    cheers!

    also realised that i have a terrible sense of direction and got lost round rathfarnham on the way out to the n81- should i have turned right at the yellow house pub?

    ended up with around 95k, av, 27.2kph.

    no excuses for next week now, will have to get back

    i just copied the link for the benefit of highlighting the route, i don't have one of those computers, but i'm guessing it's a garmin of some sort?

    It's a Garmin Edge 500 (According to lower left of the page).
    I picked one up in Cycleways for €290 a couple of weeks back. It came in a bundle with Heart Rate Monitor and Cadence gizmo.
