Departed early from Inishbofin hostel to catch the 8.15 ferry back to the mainland. Rain greeted our arrival at Cleggan and accompanied us into Connemara. Just as we thought the weather had changed for good sunshine broke out and didn't let up until we reached Galway. 72 odd miles today and it didn't feel half as bad as a few days back. After seven days on the road we've found our own ways round the aches and pains of cycling. Usually this involves more cycling, painkillers, sweets, more cycling and more cycling. I'm not sure we will be able to stop once we reach Kerry. Or perhaps we've all gone a little crazy on painkillers, endorphins and the occasional Guinness.
Well done guys! You're doing brilliantly and we're all proud of you. Christine, Morgan and all the Roughneens xxx
