Not done Ireland yet, any tips you'd pass on? How dd the weather treat you?

i would recomend it, some great views abd good coastal roads :rockon:

i packed too many clothes... lol

leathers with a rain suit, as textiles stay damp.

if you go camping buy a tanno as this was the best bit of kit i took. made a great porch to both cook under and leave all your damp gear in over night :D

also if you go camping in ireland, plan your route by campsites as ireland does not have many belive it or not, and you dont want to camp on the side of the road:rolleyes:

OK Wookie now you have been what did you learn about touring?

Whats a TANNO ?

The thing I learnt going to France and back is it takes a lot longer than you anticipate.

Which part of Ireland did you like the best?
