Lovely to meet you richy. Can't wait to see the rest of the tour. All the best. Carl and Catherine

Hard to beat Ireland when you have weather like that ! Terrific roads, gorgeous scenery and friendly people. Looking forward to the next episode.

You’ve been acquainted with our local landlords and their unscrupulous ways then! Scenery looked great, cool that a few followers took the time to come see you in Dublin port!

I don't understand the panic, you've got a top box full of Y food and Graham offering to give you all a bath, sounds like a perfect night in. Lots of laughs as usual, thanks mate.

Hahahaha excellent!

Having recently moved to Ireland from an over-crowded UK to retire, this inspired my to dust down the GSA and explore the Wicklow mountains this week 01/09/21 - only a few sheep and cyclists to distract from the stunning views. The Copper Coast is next up in a few weeks' time :-) Looking forward to the instalment.

As crazy as events turn out, it somehow make it more of a good memory !

Brilliant to see Graeme back on the channel. Looking the part as normal!

Such a beautiful place! I was LMAO about the rooms!

Love the tour vids Richy, especially how you show what's around you so we can take it all in too.

I love that people come to see you and ask for an autograph! Congrats Richy

Ireland looks wonderful really must visit, Thanks Richy.

All part of a great adventure and better stories, my friend :)

12 of us girls just came back from south west and south east Ireland..we had a blast..great roads and many advertures and mishaps but it was fab..we did the Copper Coast road also west to east.

Ireland looks a beautiful place, and a cracking country to ride in. I hope the accomodation for night one got an accurate review, cheeky bugger!

Having done many a Tour that could of been any one of them! Always dramas! Good company, pint or 3 and the pleasure of riding bikes! Great stuff Richy. Looking forward to the next one.

Just watching your ride along my old stomping ground along the coast road into bunmahon and further many a mile along there. I hope the rest is as good as this video ✌️👍🏼

What a stunning place to ride!

Fantastic looking trip backed by beautiful scenary.Thanks.

Great to see you doing the wild Atlantic way again! Been looking at going since watching your first series there. That Africa twin is stunning as well 👌👍

🤣🤣🤣 Graeme panicking “is there no pubs?” Cheers for the upload - great viewing as usual!

Great stuff...the Copper Coast is a great ride..I know it well. I was heading along the coast roughly in tandem with you guys...I think you passed me near Kinsale! Look forward to seeing more 😀,, Cheers, Steve

Great to see tour vids again 😁😁

Looking forward to the next episode, Richy. I hope to see some of the places I visited as a child, living near the west coast of Clare.

Beautiful scenery and roads. Bit of a let down at the end with accommodations ... but it's all part of the adventure. I think I would have headed to the "chipper". I get food replacements and they have their uses. All the same I prefer something solid, especially before libations. This looks like another stunner of a tour!! 👍 💓📷🏍💕

Great video, and the photos at the end are fantastic. Funny lodgings, been there, done that!

Aaayyy all right, looks like I've missed a few episodes here but SO GLAD to see the boys back out touring again.. got a few to catch up on but, nothing better than to do my work and stream Richy and gang on the road.. gonna be a nice 4 hour day of videos ! See you mate- TB- SC Stateside

Excellent Sunday night viewing Rich. Can't wait till the next episode.

Great to see you back in Ireland. Wicklow mountains my back garden and my favourite roads for a spin!!

Spectacular Sunset !!

Great to see you on tour again!!.

I've binge watched all of the Wild Atlantic Way episodes, amazing, thank you!

Sorry, I'm late....... :- ( I guess most of us who have tried to do any touring in the UK 'post the COVID lockdown ' has experienced something pretty similar to this....especially trying to find somewhere to get something to eat in the evening. I had the same problem on Anglesey...I never left home without booking something in advance after that. No need for you to feel 'bad' Martin not your 'fault' mate. Just the way it is at the minute. Gorgeous sunset and light /sky towards the end....Hats off to you Richy for not making everyone stop so you could take 100's of photo's :-)

This is superb viewing lads. My son and I have been looking forward to this all weekend and it didn’t disappoint. When’s the next one out? I got addicted to your channel by watching your first WAW series btw and now you’ve done it again! Seriously well done, it’s compelling viewing.

Properly bamboozled!

Fantastic Video Mr V. Always a pleasure to watch. 👍👍👍

Great video worth the wait. Cant wait for next episode. Oh Graham got a new bike too very nice.

I rode a twin many years ago, but she’s moved away now. 🤪

Proud to be Irish and ride a twin 😁 Great video looking forward to episode 2 🤟🤟

I want to do it myself sometime soon. I have told quite a few people about your videos, shared it with the good lady and she wants to do it. She is now learning to ride herself and we want to do it together, love the videos 😉👍
