Dusty, thanks for cave info but we usually avoid them. Too long away from the bikes and the gear which we can't monitor for quite awhile and cave parking lots are usually empty because everyone is on the tour. However, if secure parking becomes available we'll reconsider. Bear in mind I come from the land of the "if it isn't tied down it's fair game"
Well we know it won't be 80 but cold and dry is definitely ok. Worried about daughter with little rain experience plus first time for her riding on the left. I also know it won't be lower than 50 in the day by the time summer rolls around so staying mostly dry would be my preference.
Finally the big day tomorrow. Arriving Wed, 3 or 4 days at relatives in Kent and then heading for the ferry. Man, I'm glad we have no reservations because my weather report for Ireland says rain every day for the next 2 weeks. If that really happens and it's a drizzle no big deal but if it's thunderstorms and buckets full of rain guess we'll be heading to France sooner than later. Second daughter is flying in on the 11th for 10 days. She'll meet us either in Dublin or west coast of England. First daughter's girl friend will take over on the 21st til the end of the trip. Looking forward to meeting some of you soon.

Wow, now that's a road I want to be onIf you get time sir, check out Healy Pass in County Cork/Kerry, it's a 7 mile ribbon of tarmac that runs through the mountains with some of the most amazing hairpin bends you'll ever see, much like the ribbon roads you'll see in Eastern Europe. The views are simply spectacular. It literally is one of the greatest driving roads in Ireland.
You will have incredible fun on your bike on this road
Good to hear some optimism Penfold thanksThat's some forecast Kuri ! Wouldn't worry too much bud, even our local forecasters manage to get it wrong. In fact some of them couldn't tell you what the weather was like ten minutes ago. Been hot here in the north the last few days. We're expecting a bit of rain in the next few days but I'm sure it'll clear up.
