I set myself targets. My first was to get to Enniskerry, then I wanted to get to Roundwoof, then Glendalough etc.

My latest was to finally get to the Liam Horner memorial via the waterfall.

Anyway, I made it.

Some nice photos taken yesterday in Drury St car-park bicycle section Dublin. The track-pump has Schrader and Presta valve fittings.

Photos yes, not sure if nice is the word I'd use.

Maybe 8yrs is time for a new phone :pac:

How do you find disc-braking instead of pads on your bike? I've just re-started on a road-bike with pads after some years. I've been using using a disc-brake Diamondback M/B for years, am used to the instant braking now but not sure how they would seem like on a road-bike.

Borderfox · 02-07-2018 11:42am

Love it especially in the wet but on day to day it works great even with only mechanical bb7 calipers.

Front and Rear lug-pairs needed on dropout and forks along with discs on hubs. Will need to visit shops.

A few shots from the Hospice Cycle Challenge in Croatia, Slovenia and Italy last week. Not great weather (!) but at least it was cool and the scenery made up for the rain. Over €200k raised for the Nurses for Night Care Service.

Usually when an app does something I didnt ask it to do like that I have the strong urge to smash the phone off the nearest wall but I absolutely love the way Google sends you an enhanced version of random images sometimes, I dont think its ever sent me a badly done one. Love the way it turns a series of shots into a panorama without being asked aswell.

Norgaardholz, Schleswig-Holstein. 'Tis a pretty spot.

i've never seen this - does it only do it if you've configured automatic online backup of your photos?

Nicely ironic

06-08-2018 11:45pm

I've been meaning to head out that way actually,whats the state of the road you can take from mosney there back to laytown and cross the bridge like?

Would be a nice 35km loop from town heading out the r132 and and back along the coast/river on the r150/151 based on my google maps measurements

LollipopJimmy · 06-08-2018 11:55pm

We'd actually just turned in off the old R132 for a nose heading from Drogheda towards Balbriggan

I did a spin the other day. Out the R108(Beamore Road) to Cooperhill from Drogheda, straight across the R150(Duleek-Julianstown road) go up by Dardistown house, turn left just after you go over the M1, then next left, which brings you onto the R132(old N1) turn right, then left down by Murphy's quarry. This will bring you the back road to Mosney, then continue onto foot bridge, that brings you to Laytown, home by coast road. Just over 30kms for me( I live on South side) Roads are quiet and in reasonable condition.
This route means, you avoid, for the most part, the R132.

It's fine - relatively quiet rural road with a fairly good surface with a bit of loose gravel in places. It's particularly quiet towards the Laytown bridge end as it becomes a Cul de Sac for motor vehicles.

Best thing on display in IMMA today.

I was glad to see this sign on the Waterford Greenway on the way into Dungarvan.

Fabulous greenway and such an asset to Waterford.
I stopped at Mount Congreve gardens for coffee and chocolate cake. It is a lovely spot to stop at with a little hedged road entrance, indoor/outdoor seating, outdoor icecream fridge etc.

There is something for everyone on it with the kids' train outside of Waterford, the beautiful aqueducts (can't see them at their best angle on it) and the great places to stop for food.
The tunnel is a little gem.
Massive tourism potential with Rosslare down the road. I did it on a Friday and it was busy enough.

Seriously-speaking, how did you find the WG-way. A nephew told me that it was rubbish, with loose gravel on the track and partly public road.

It's fantastic, in the main the surface is excellent, it is a little loose in places and there are some crossings but it's not shared with vehicular traffic. Your nephew must have been somewhere else

Depends on what your expectations are.
I found it excellent.
I have to say having not been in the south east before the landscape down there is beautiful, rolling hills, tillage, pasture and some hardwood trees. Not too much sitka spruce in sight.
