  • Every cycling trip begins with its first pedal push. The plan was to travel five countries in 5 days cycling the bike. We left Kilkenny and headed for the capital, Dublin, Ireland. Ferry to Holyhead and our first stop over in Bangor.

    You're doing great work on this channel, keep it up. Its really refreshing to watch an Irish cycling channel. Cycling around Liverpool craving a pint of Guinness instead of a pack of Haribo a personal highlight 😂

      Trying to find a decent Guinness would have made for a better video 🤣 thanks a million for the comment, we’ll stick with the channel and see where it goes 😀🤙

      I watch a lot of cycling TY content and got recommended your channel by the algorithm so that's a good sign that you're reaching the stage where it's starting recommend.

      @dunphyc3 yeah it’s slowly getting a bit of momentum. That’s good to hear how you found it. Hopefully it keeps pushing it.

    Gutted I couldn't make the leg from the ferry to Bangor 😪 And yeah, you were on the A55, a 70 mph dual carriageway, but cycling is allowed 🤣

    • @derekfeehan
      @derekfeehan  2 місяці тому +1

      Ah no panic pal, would have been a bit of craic. You might have got us a safer route as well 🤣 bikes should never be allowed on that road 🫣

      We were on it before we knew what was going on. After the second car blowing past us we knew it was a bit dodge 🤣 I’m sure their must be a better way to Bangor but the map gave us that.
