    Kerry is about the nicest place there is. I love it. Got to run the Kerry Way Ultra last year but would love to take my bike down some time.

      One of the best things you can do is a speak to a local bike shop, get a bit of a preliminary bike fit on a few bikes etc, see which you like best, and what suits the type of riding you plan to do

      @@connormcc don't worry, I'm not one of them, but I've taken enough spins around that part of the country to know any misspoken word can lead to unintentional insults. Nice folk other than that. Don't mention capitals, other parts of Ireland and constantly remind them how great Cork is to stay on side.

    Did the ring of Kerry event a couple of times but to be honest and I know I'm biased since I come from the area but the Inishowen 100 is on a different level both in scenery ways and also just the savageness of it with near 9000ft of elevation gain and 106 miles in distance. Nothing comes close .

    • @connormcc
      @connormcc  2 месяца назад

      Yea Kerry was really beautiful, I really loved it. It’s a shame that I haven’t done Inishowen 100 yet, especially as I live up north… but it just seems to intimidating 😂 - maybe next year 😁
