    I've been trying to figure out safe cycling routes around Ballina, can only come up with Beleek Woods so far. Can anyone suggest routes that steer clear of road traffic?

    Don't know too much about Ballina, but a new cycling route has recently been opened between Newport and Achill along the old railway line. Easy cycle or walk, fantastic views.

    granted - but anyone living in the Mayo/sligo area may well be interested in the idea as a project.
