Day 1 – M2M went very well as we made our way from Malin Head to Ballybofey. Brilliant sunshine all day. All 73 cyclists completed the first leg (97km) without any real issues. Early start from Dublin – yours truly arrived last minute. Some initial minor transport delays – made up for by smart routing and excellent driving. Breakfast at 11am in Derry and all at Malin Head in good time to have setoff by 1pm.

Our subgroup just before leaving Malin Head
Short break in Buncrana on way to Ballybofey – where we had dinner and an early night. Weather expected to be warm but some showers possible tomorrow. Tomorrow’s route is 168km and takes us through Yeats country on the way to Claremorris.
