The Intercity took us to Tullamore into the heart of the Irish Midlands. From here, the cycle went along the Grand Canal Way, which connects Shannon River in the West with Dublin in the East of the country. Total length is about 130km, built from 1756 to 1804!
Half of the distance cycled today is good tarmac, some stretches are compacted gravel and the ballance greenfield track. A strong westerly breeze limited today‘s effort to see some other parts of Ireland.
Fair winds…
