    Coming from dublin is really handy for the naas meeting point.
    Just head down the N7 and take the naas exit at the big ball.

    2nd exit on the first roundabout.
    1st exit on the second round about

    And you will see us on your left about 5 seconds later.

    There's never any issue with people joining for a spin. Just cos they might not post here, doesn't mean they're not welcome. It wouldn't be a problem at all I would think, but you may need to double check that with Wonda or LBY as it's usually them that organises the spins. But like I said, I doubt it'd be a problem.

    Might drop out to meet yiz in Kilcock 11.30. Returning back to Dublin though to watch Dublin v Mayo. I have to confess, I'm not a real biker when I put a GAA game ahead of biking :eek: :D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 17 V!PER


    Will try to drop out to kilcock, what time is the meeting at kilcock some posts say 11:30 and the others say 12:00. I think 12 would be better if alot are travelling from Naas at 11 or 11:30.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 896 ✭✭✭blu3r0ri0n


    Sunday will be a generally dry day with good sunny spells, although the day might start cloudy and misty over southern parts. Highest temperatures of 17 to 21 degrees, highest in the south, in mainly light westerly breezes.

    Hope you lot had a good and safe spin, looking out the window and gutted i couldn't go:(


  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭nerrad1983

  • Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]

    Great spin and nice to put some faces to names finally. It'll be my last Sunday Spin though, there was an inordinate about of breaks / stopping which put me off.

    Agreed,
    not saying I wouldnt go again but a planed route before hand would be better,

    like picking a place to stop for a bite to eat at a certain time,

    It's the first time we had this issue on a Sunday Spin - we had to take in to account the learner's that were out with us (ddint know there was going to be any) and as a result the original route was scrapped which caused a bit of a confusion, still it was a good spin though.

    I think next week's plan is to head down my way for a spin, take that with a pinch of salt as it may change. I already have a route planned if its going to be down this way. I dont know my way around the parts we usually go for a sunday spin so I play followed the leader usually, however I am happy to lead away when I know the area.

    Dont let this Sunday put you off, one messy sunday out of several dozens over the last year or two isnt bad I think.

    These things happen lads. I've been on countless spins all round the country and some are great, some are just so-so, some are no good, although they are few and far between. You just have to take them as they come. If it's a great day, then you'll enjoy it. If it's a bad one, then put it down to experience and just look forward to the next one. Just my 2c. :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,013 ✭✭✭✭Wonda-Boy


    Have to say it was a great day all in all, obviously with a large group of bikes its hard to accomodate every taste, but we were caught on the hop with the learner's on the day and we tried to help them the best we could. Great bunch of lads off here and good craic to boot, nice bikes aswell even the hooligan ones :D

    However, next time I/we will have a pre defined route before we start and less stops (but could not be helped this time) but we try to get the route so no one is too far from home at the end.

    There will be no spin organised this weekend (not by me anyway ;) as I will be at the road races sat & sun.
