My default ride when I dont have a definite plan for an excursion out is to ride across to Slieve Gullion in Northern Ireland.
I can see the top of the low mountain from my front door.....it's about thirty miles if you're a crow.
A half hours ride gets me near to the mountains.....

Great day for a ride out. Grey skies lifted and nice dry roads for a change.
A bit chilly at 3°c but the newly installed Oxford Heated Grips worked well.
Nice long views as you ride across Slieve Gullion.

Close to 600kms on the bike so far and I'm extremely pleased with this machine.

It's all that I hoped it'd be. Just waiting on some bolt-ons to arrive....

I think we'll be very happy together.......

There's derelict cottages across the mountain sides.
Must've been harsh in winter in times past.....
