Touring

First topic message reminder :

Hi,
Can anyone give me any good ideas on where to go touring on my 'Cat this summer???Its the first time I've been and don't want to be too adventurous for my 'first time'.
Also whats everyones favourite tyre for the Thundercat???


Cheers Ellie xxxxxxx

Cheers for all the 'colourful' suggestions....
I'm hoping to get out on a ride one of these days, Taste of Lincolnshire maybe...????
Scotland a bit far as I have a 10 yr old pillion and she gets a bit bored (and falls asleep!), ......but we'll see.......

Still can't make my mind up about the colour scheme........(I used to be indecisive but I'm not so sure).......

How about nipping over to Ireland for a few days?

I went over last year for the Bush Road Races with a mate that hails from there originally. He lives in Market Rasen now. The east coast road from Port Rush is fantastic.

Also if you don't fancy N. Ireland you could try Southern. Ferry over to Dublin and stay around Co. Wicklow area. Some fantastic roads around that area. I've not done them on a bike, but used to work over there for 6 months. Very freindly people and wondeful scenery.

Ooer - we'll all have to be on our best behaviour then

We had a member on our old MSN site from N Ireland and I kept asking him to organise a rideout there but he never managed it.

He posted as much as Ezzy's Mum and Ellie put together and would often answer his own questions before anyone else got a chance.
ThunderatedDavy I think was his Sitename on MSN. Always had something to say and he kept us up to date with his international love life too.
I bought some spare levers from him and touch wood will be able to sell them without ever having to use them.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think we have any Irish members on here yet......Are you there Davy?

I've only been to NI once for a day through work and had to drive from Belfast to Londonderry and back upgrading comms equipment at 3 sites for an insurance company.

I've run out of Brownie points for this year but if Deso or anyone else fancies organising one for Ireland, NI or both next year then I'd love to do that.

Cheers
