Jaysus. The first thing was that I had started in Connolly Stn - I thought it would be in Heuston Stn as the train went to Maynooth . But I checked and the ticket said that I started in Connolly . So to Connolly I go. So the train was supposed to leave just after 9AM but did not till about 20 mins past 9AM , and it also stopped at every station between the two .It also was stopped from stopping at Maynooth as there were leaves at the station .So it went as far as Hazelhatch , so all in all I was about 1 Hr later that I thought I would be . So that rushed me a small bit . To come to the cycle , it was great , only that some of it was very slow , because a lot of it was alongside the canal and rivers , where I had to walk . Against that it was lovely and peaceful and I think I will try it again with more time . I was suppoded to go as far as Monasterevin but I just went as far as Kildare and got a direct train to Dublin which was great and quick .
