Seeing as Si is landing on tomorrow for a few days, anyone up for an informal run in Kerry on Sunday?

He's here actually. Just spoke to Ger who's home tomorrow, and he'll probably come on a run on Sunday too. So this looks like it's happening!

Great day out today, we did Gougane Barra, twice (!!!), followed by Priest Leap, then the Pancake House in Sneem, then back down Molls Gap, and home. Good fun, and great to see the usual suspects out again.

I think Si and Oliver will have photos and videos up soon, but it was a very 'spirited' drive alright :)

You said you were busy mate! Anyway, Si is blown away by the roads we were on today, he was giggling next to me the whole way through the North Cork Forestry Rally Stage, errr .... Gougane Barra. And he couldn't get over Priest Leap, he was amazed that roads like that existed in Ireland.

Reminds me of the time I told off Ger at MTI 07

"Gerard, I'm pissed at you" I yelled.

"Í'm really, seriously pissed off at you"

Gerard looks at me like I lost my mind, thinking that he'd done something to offend me.

He had, and I informed him why.

I explained "I wanted to be driving my car all through Priest's Leap"


Ride beggars can't be choosers, I guess. :tongue: :tongue:

I laughed & giggled all through that road, too. ;)

Pity the weather was so bad! Didn't seem to dampen the spirits however! :) :flower:
