Mizen to Malin Day 2 – took us from Killarney, CO. Kerry to Lehinch, Co. Clare.

Catch the ferry

Nothing changes – ‘lads we need to be out of here by 8 sharp – in order to catch the ferry at Tarbert. If you miss it you’re on your own’. Well we all made it comfortably – in fact we caught the noon ferry instead of the 12:30 ferry.

and quickly off the ferry and on to Kilrush for lunch…

Safety

When you look to move c. 80 cyclists from one end of the country to the other – safety is the number one priority. Everytime we came to a potentially tricking road crossing or travelled through a busy village – we had outriders in place making it safe for all. We talk about safety everyday – and pushed to have all complete safety training ahead of the cycle. It’s just core to what we do.

When I did my first M2M in 2016 this was a highlight; in 2018 we were travelling in the opposite direction and pressing to catch a ferry – did not get to stop. Today was great – and probably could have done without the second slice of Rhubarb tart. Wonderful hospitality in informal surroundings out in the garden looking out over the Atlantic. Thank you from all the cyclists.

Lehinch

Have had many a good day and night here – in particular golfing at the famous links. Many of the cyclists availed of the opportunity for a refreshing dip in the ocean. Missed this this time. Staying in two hotels – our support team worked patiently to get bags delivered across the two hotels. Excellent dinner had by all – and, once again, most headed for the bed by 10pm.
