So a couple of weeks ago my mate, Paul Davies (WW tail end charlie) and I did a couple of days in Scotland taking in the Mull of Kintyre etc, then ferry over to Belfast from Stranraer to visit Joeys Bar and a couple of days around the Donegal section of the Wild Atlantic Way, stayed at a lovely hotel near Joeys Bar called the Bushtown Hotel.
Ferry back in to Wales from Dublin.
Bike and rider ferry from Stranraer to Belfast then Dublin to Holyhead was about £90, quick ride down the A5 through snowdonia to home

Re: Recent trip
It's great isn't it Dave.
I so want to go again but my regular riding buddy is committed to hols with his Mrs so probably not going to happen this year
I know I could go by myself but I prefer riding company

Re: Recent trip
It is great Steve. For various reasons I’ve had to miss out on my regular jaunt into Europe and a mate had suggested this trip after being over here with his son earlier in the year. Quiet roads and the friendliness is unreal. Thoroughly recommend it

Re: Recent trip
I never realised before that there's an overnight sailing to Cherbourg from Dublin, never again will I be trekking down to the Channel ports to France, next time I go I'm going via Dublin.
And Al ...... I'll give Tinder a miss![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
