    A few pics from my drive from Enniskerry to Rathfarnham today. Sorry, not a patch on the Wicklow boys!

    Yeah - first few pics are on the Pine Forest Road, I detoured off my route and the second last one is heading/looking up towards Sally Gap and Kippure - didn't go any further than that - turned around there!

    On turning met 3 boy racer cars (the usual 12 year old Starlets, etc). with 6 capped occuppants flying up the road cutting up the snow.......saps!!! Wouldn't surprise me if they're in the ditch now! :p

    Great shots - you've obviously got the wheels to get up there!

    Lovely pics there!

    I hear the sally gap was closed earlier because some feckin bus decided to take a trip up there! Did you see any of that? I was seriously thinking of taking a spin up there earlier. Maybe tomorrow.

    No buses to be seen - didn't go that far - only people I saw were aforementioned boy racers!
