sounds great. this is a savage spin. This spin could take up to 8/10 hours biking. We could organise a pre 7/08/2010 spin for anybody who wants to atempt this. cant wait

Yes, I am thinking of doing the Wicklow Way from Tinahely to Glenmalure or Glendalough. This will be mostely on fireroad with some road section and plenty of climbing. I have to look at the calander to pick a day. or two.

What about the 10th of july for the Wicklow way trip. There is accomodation in glemalure but we could park a car/van in glenmalure to get back to Tinahely. a barbeque can be organised at our house to do some important carb loading after the spin.

From that blog -
"8 hours, 17 minutes and 19 seconds after I left Marley Park I reached the placard in Clonegal. I broke the previous Wicklow Way by bicycle record by almost 4 hours"

a. Good luck to you! :)
b. Record? On you go!
