Was hoping to make this Saturday but work, family commitments don't allow.

Have a great one, hope it's back next month at 9.
 
one salty trip won't kill it and if you're still worried just give the underside a wash off when you get home...
 
Heres the weather outlook for Friday/Saturday from met.ie. Not as cold as recent nights... Id nearly be more worried about the rain...

General : Less cold over the weekend, with some rain at times, but still some slight frosts also.
Friday night : Some rain in the evening, but drying out for a time early in the night, with clear spells. Lows of -1 to plus 3 C., are expected , with some frost and ice in places. But more cloudy, misty weather, with rain, is expected to move in from the Atlantic later on.

Saturday : A cloudy breezy day, with rain and drizzle in all areas for a time, some of it persistent and heavy. Highs of 5 to 9 C., in fresh southerly winds.

Do I just pull in to the side at the ramp onto the M7 at Borris in Ossory and merge with the convoy when I see them passing?

Edit: Is there only 3 cars in the Dublin convoy or will there be more?

If you begin driving in holding pattern on the junction 21 roundabout at about 8:25 you should be able to merge with the rest of the convoy when they pass under at 8:30.

Theres more than 3. Isn't Liam (rascal1) coming too? I'm sure there'll be more that'll join in.

These are his times:
Heading down to this on Saturday. Will be leaving the Applegreen Petrol Station on Naas road(second station from Newlands cross) at 7.15..
That is if anyone else is heading from Dublin or it's surronds and want to travel together.

Times are approximate but it will give some idea.They are roughly based on 80kph.
Monasterevin.........Junction 14.................7.50
Portlaoise..............Junction 17................. 8.15
Borris in Ossary.....Junction 21................. 8.30
Roscrea.................Junction 22..................8.45
Nenagh.................Junction 26..................9.00

That should get us there for 9.30 to 9.45. or allow for a slight Hiccup on the way.
