There is no southern leg, its west coast and north............the trip is missing the best part Ireland, and also the best driving roads IMO.

Southern as not NI. I agree that there possibly should be some southern things put in there. ;)

i know what your saying jay, but there were a lot of things to be considered which included the wives and what they wanted to see and do on the trip, but the n 59 is a really good drive clarkson and co did it in jan of this year

meeting the guys at the port at 11.30am sat morning then to the airport as pauls wife could not make the boat, then i think the n7 down to limerick/ennis

day 1 dublin to ennis, staying at the west county hotel ennis, should be a buzzing night there as its fully booked out as phil coulter is in concert there that night.

day 2 on to probably salthill galway, as none of the city centrehotels have car parks only on street parking, bit of a hiccup with the hotel i had booked but i shall sort or change it tomorrow

day 3 to westport staying at the castlecourt hotel, some nice shops and restaurants there too

day 4 to bundoran, staying at the holyrood hotel, there will be music entertainment in the bar that night foc, then hand over to andrew

all the hotels were chosen because of price/location they all have a leisure centre/pool, BECAUSE I KNOW STEVE LIKES A GOOD SESSION IN THE GYM TO START THE DAY OFF!!!!!!!! what they lack in luxury they make up for in friendliness

asfaik the guys are back in dublin fri evening where i was thinking of booking them into the springfield hotel leixlip if the girls want liffey valley shopping or the red cow because of the luas if they want city centre sight seeing, this tbc, but i will organise a few drinks for the fri night or maybe even a bbq at mine this tbc

all are welcome to join us at all or any part of the trip.

Good stuff, let me know when you're coming onto the N7 and I can join up with you, maybe stop off for lunch somewhere on the way to Limerick?

I take it the Topaz garage is easy to find as it sounds like a plan to me
we have to go to Dublin airport after we get there to pick up Paul Wrangles wife who is flying in she arrives at 11.15 I think and we get in on the ferry at 11.35 so it should all work

Ofcourse, when are you intending to meet up with us? For the whole NI leg of the tour or only part of it?

Depending on my work schedule for that week I'll either be meeting up in Bundoran on Tues night or if I'm working a late shift on Tues then I'll be meeting up on Wed morning. On Wed day we hope to take in the caves in Enniskillen and the Ulster American folk park in Omagh and stay the night in Buncrana. Thursday day would be leaving Buncrana, catching the ferry from Greencastle to Magilligan, then Bushmills distillery, the Giants Causway and possibly Carrick-a-Rede. Staying in Ballymena on Thurs night. On Fri day doing the Ards Penninsula, Mountstewart, aquariums in Portaferry, ferry across Strangford Lough and maybe Castleward then saying goodbye as they head back to Dublin.

The Topez garage would be a good location because you are clear of the port and the roundabout takes you to the port exit. From the exit it is a straight run for the port tunnel out to the airport . A fee of 3 euros applies for the tunnel.
