Day 3: Tue June 27

Day 3: Tue June 27

Castleknock, Blanchardstown, Ashbourne, Duleek, Julianstown, Drogheda, Dunleer, Ardee, Kingscourt, Shercock, Coothill, Ballybay and overnight in Castleblayney (Counties Meath, Louth, Cavan, Monaghan)

156 km 7 hrs cycling time. Average speed 22.2 km/ hr Racer


An early start from Castleknock but going against the early morning traffic. Stopped in Bellewstown and met up with some of the Drogheda group who had also spent time in Providence School in Shillong. And a welcome cup of tea. Came across one irate driver in Drogheda…that doesn’t happen too often. Lunched on the wide Main Street of Kingscourt and then set off into drumlin country with plenty of lakes in the depressions. Early arrival in Castleblayney and no problem getting accommodation.

Fine weather all day… not a sign of rain.

...and safely into Castleblayney.
