HI Will and

Some lovely countryside over your side of the Irish Sea, I'm planning to have a tour round NI in the next couple months

Hi folks! Thanks for the welcome.

Yeah mcshroom it really is a beautiful place. Have you started making your plans for the tour yet? Been here before I take it? I'd come with ye for the Belfast leg of your tour if you're lookin some company for a few miles!

I remember very little about my only visit to date, I was three years old at the time, but the photos of the holiday are very pretty.

As for planning out all the details, I've only just really started, but I'm looking at sailing to Belfast, then riding up the coast to somewhere like (London)derry, south round the west of Lough Neagh to Newry, then back along the coast(ish) to Belfast for the ferry home. I reckon on it being about a week to do that. That's just a sort of guess looking at a road map though.

Company would always be great

Some ideas for routes....

Aw that sounds like a class wee trip, you've definitely gotta give me a shout and I'll catch up with ye somewhere.

I'm dead jealous of your holiday........and I'm the one who lives here!

When you're heading back from Newry I think it'd be worth your while considering making the trip to Belfast via Newcastle, Strangford, (boat to) Portaferry, then up the very East coast...just a suggestion like, 'cause it's a beautiful spot!
