    Ye, it's just good being on the bike. I wouldn't just go for a spin needlessly if it was p'ing rain but if I have somewhere to be and its raining, windy etc. I'll take the bike over the car anytime. I don't know if anyone ever watched comedians in cars getting coffee on Netflix. Jerry Seinfeld tells a story about when he was young; it was lashing rain and he was talking to biker; he asked the biker, "do you wish you were in a car?" and the biker replied, "no, I just wish it wasn't raining!". Once we get out of this lockdown, whatever the weather, I'll be out the next Sunday.

    I hope to get out on Sunday as the next I have off work after that is Christmas day :(

    Is there any particular route that's decent out by howth or is it mostly scenery, comes up a lot on here but I don't know the good roads.

    Its a head so really only one point of entrance to it, and its not that big either. It is good to park up and go for a stroll around the cliffs and the piers though. Its over run with cars to really enjoy it, the coast road into it is a disaster if its a nice day, its down to one lane and even on a bike its dodgy
    I sometimes go up at about 5 or 6 in the morning which is perfect, flask of coffee and the sunrise is epic from the summit

    Also ice cream is nice to grab out there, in better weather.

    Jimmy, you're so wrong on that one :) Ice cream is a state of mind, if ever you see bloke on a bike having a 99 outside the shop on the washerwomans hill outside the Bons in the píssing rain, its likely to me me :)
    It transforms my day no matter what the weather.

    (I've made not that the shop opens at 7.00 am too haha)
