Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way Motorcycle Tour by BMW 1200 GSA and Triumph Tiger 900 - Final Episode

Фильм және анимация

This final episode takes us from Galway to the lovely Medieval town of Kilkenny were we yet again sample some amazing food, Guinness and entertainment! The added bonus of the town itself is the culture and history surrounding it. We visit Kilkenny Castle with its beautiful grounds and stunning views over looking the river. The roads didn't offer the same excitement, views and variety of The Wild Atlantic Way route but that was only to be expected. The last day saw us take in the ancient Aghaboe Abbey on the road to Dublin to catch the ferry home. We were very sad to leave this stunning country and its friendly and welcoming people and can't wait to come back and complete the second half of this amazing road trip!
We hope you enjoy this final episode and please feel free to share, subscribe and comment. Thanks again for watching this tour and we look forward to sharing more adventures with you in 2023!

I look forward to seeing you come back and finish it. Hopefully to include Inishowen, The Causeway Coast, and the Antrim Coast. My sister has just turned fifty, passed her bike test and bought a Tiger 900 GT PRO as her first bike. Hopefully we'll be on the west coast when the weather picks up again.

    Kilkenny is a great wee city, almost a victim of it's own popularity due to the number of stag and hen parties.... Smithwicks the beer of choice, brewed in the city since the 1700's. Numerous festival's during the year, we go to the Kilkenny Roots festival each year, May bank holiday weekend. Lots of Roots, Rock and Americiana bands, dozens of free gigs etc.

    Places to visit is a personal preference - we loved all the route - but we particularly enjoyed riding the Healy Pass ( not strictly on the WAW) well worth a detour - as far as advice is concerned we would always say don’t rush it! Take your time and enjoy the journey - we aim to get to our destination by 3.00 pm so we can enjoy the location, lots of people ride all day and get up the next day and repeat 🤷‍♂️ We loved Ireland, - the people are really friendly, the food is excellent and the Guinness exquisite! 😀 👍

    Great series, but the best of the WAW is ahead of Ye......well I have to say that, I'm in the North West of Ireland.......😁😁 I see in the comments someone recommended Adventure Bike Pilot KZread channel, His WAW videos are very detailed and definitely worth a look. If You want to see a bit of "hardship" have a look at "RobLittleUK", to celebrate His 70th birthday Rob did a full loop of Ireland anti clockwise from Rosslare Port. He did this on a little Yamaha YB 100 last June, the trip took about three weeks and weather wise Rob got only a few good days. In fact on several days He encountered torrential rain and severe gales, a real test of endurance. All the best for 2023 and safe riding.

    Thanks Steve! We’re glad you enjoyed it 👍 we tend not to do big mileage days anymore - old bones need regular breaks and also we like to take our time, have plenty of stops for coffee and photo, etc! Our routine is usually set off after breakfast 9.30ish and get to our destination by 3.00/4.00pm. So on single track country roads that might not be many miles for example our ride from Portmagee to Dingle was about 80 miles and Kilkee Bay to Galway was about the same. We love the WAW and hope you have a brilliant time! 😀👍

If I may ask your advice, I am planning a France, Spain and Portugal trip in September and note that you use 'Relive' to record your trips. Is the app easy to use? (Phone or laptop) Is there a subscription cost? Data limits? Thank you and safe travels.

    Hi Les, Bri looks after most of the tech but I’m ‘in charge’ of Relive so hope the info helps. I have the app on my iPhone as I set it every morning before we set off for the day. It is actually very easy to use, edit, save etc. I had it free for a year - which was actually fine and many people just stay with the free version - but the subscription c£40 per year - allows us to edit more and add more photos etc. I’m not sure about data limits but if you search for relive and relive plus in the App Store, it should tell you. Have a fantastic trip. We can’t wait to get back on tour. Thanks for watching our adventures. Sue ☺️👍🏍️🏍️
