tour of ireland and sperrins rally 2016

Post by bth2bth2 » Tue May 03, 2016 5:36 pm

a few members went on a tour of ireland via the national memorial and north wales. we took the long way round to the sperrins rally in the heart of the sperrin mountains near cookstown,northern ireland. a fair amount of the local black stuff and spirits were consumed and some fantastic scenery.
my mt500 covered 2123 km(1319 mls) at an average of 46.8 mpg. a high of 49.5 and a low of 44.2.
places visited ,following the wild atlantic way ,were galway,sligo,donegal . took in the cookstown races and given a grand tour of the north by our host tim.
