some of the best roads on the first and second day of the mizen to malin run are in kerry so have no fear because its a giant playground of mini suited roads just mind the potholes some have their own weather patterns they are that big,only joking

Re: 1st and 2nd day of MTM: Would that be doing MTM on the 1st day and coming back down again from Donegal on the 2nd?

Still hoping,
