A Big thank you to everyone that turned up in force for yesterdays run, it was fantastic to get the numbers and fair play to all that travelled from as far off as Sligo, Roscommon, Clare, Cork, Dublin, and the South East.
We all had great crack, from almost bringing the M7 Motorway to a complete stop with the crew in the film van, been actually been able to admire the Slieve Bloom Mountains without cloulds in the way and then having a photo opportunity with Micky & Minnie Mouse at our "Belly Stop" in the lovely Kinnitty :D
And to boot, the weather finally gave us a break and the Sun belted down all day!! 8)

I will post up on the Forum when the Nationwide programme will be aired, it will be sometime in the last week of this month.

I didnt get to take many pictures as i was flat out but if anyone has some, please feel free to stick them up here.

Thanks again everyone,

Darran.
