Such an eventual ride . I went along the coast to malahide which was lovely and peaceful , really peaceful . The traffic was absolutely horrible . Maybe the reason was that it was really the first nice day you could go for a ride . You could see peaple walking , cycling running and in their cars. It was really great . When I was trying to get along the north side of the Bay along by Malahide this Gent told me that it was impassible so I had a look and I noticed that a tree had fallen across it , and it did cause a problem ,but it was passable with a bit of pulling and chucking . So I got beyond it . Then when I came out onto the dead end and about to start cycling at Prospect Point , I started to talk to Allen , a builder , and I ended up having a cuppa in his house ! So there! He told me of the wild life around his house - rats hens pheasants and owls and others . It was really listening to him . He was driving a Merc so there must have been some money in the industry. I then returned to home basically the same way, so a great cycle . It takes Ireland .
