The weather was much kinder to us today. While overcast most of the day, one sharp shower, and the odd little spot was all we had.
A number of fairly long climbs, if not that steep, but all in the first 25 miles, so the first session was a hard one.
After that the roads were good, a little undulating, but NO SIGNIFICANT HILLS. !!
Travelling mainly on minor roads, we had a great day. Lots of lovely villages and towns, but relatively little traffic.
Brian and Laura managed to find themselves a nice seat at one of the stops. The local cattle tried to make him feel at home too.
Into Limerick for the night. We are slap bang in the middle of town. Bars a bit noisy but easy to just find somewhere to eat and have the obligatory Guinness.
Everyone cycled well today. It was a challenge for some, a second 70 odd miles in consecutive days, while others managed to find time to visit Limerick castle before they left, while still getting to the hotel long before the rest of us! (Hertfordshire pro's).
A few aches and pains, but a good day.
