  2. Great stuff! What a ride! How did you find the traffic? I have been cycling here for many years, and the increase in car traffic has ruined cycling through Wicklow for me.

  4. Fair play to ya! That croissant gave you the fuel you needed.

  5. 🙌

    You went past my house. Why did you not pop in for Tea? 

  6. Best of luck with all sitting, standing, moving, not moving, sleeping, not sleeping, walking, and not walking activities tomorrow

  7. We (bunch of lads) all cycled from Dunlaoighaire to Brittas Bay to camp. Just that nearly killed us, but it *was* 1980 so bikes were a bit heavier and clunkier then. Plus we were carrying cotton tents and food, etc. I think just one of that group could do that trip today, the rest of us now too comfortably fat and out of condition. And old. Sigh.

  15. Well done, 200KM isn’t easy 👏👏👏 How did you find the last 50KM? Body starting to ache?

  16. This is for your Strava Jnr mates to nJoy on Face, OP, save it for them or do you want a medal?

  19. Wholesome. Can’t think of many better things for an 18 year old to be putting their energy into
