    Has anyone ever done this, taken a few days off and gone the whole way round the country, seeking out the best roads you can along the way? I'm thinking of doing something like this next year - not sure if I'm going to be able to get over to France etc - but we have some great roads on our doorstep so why not take advantage of them.

    I've been to the Ring of Kerry and it was amazing I'd love to do it on the bike. The A2 around the Antrim coast is apparently fantastic, also some cracking roads up around Westport etc. Looking to get some ideas as to where to go and how to plan it.

    The Donegal costal route is spectacular, was there last May, one of the best biking roads in the country. Not quick but amazing scenery.

    Coast Road to Tramore from Dungarvan (or Vice Versa) has savage scenery and is a great road with plenty of twisties and flat out straights!:D
