Hi all

forgive the delay but the date has been set as saturday 24th of April

details of the run

Starting at mullen's filling station (beside Ford/Mazda garage in Silgo) meet around 10:30am. They have lots of parking and serve breakfast rolls, coffee's sandwich's etc and have Toilet facilities but sadly no sit down area. (best we could get in silgo with parking and breakfast stuff, Yeats Tavern could only do Tea and scones).

Head then for Enniskillen which will take over an hour in a convoy, it is a scenic route and is lovely route with a few stops for views and to ensure everyone is still ok.

Arrive at Round "O"'s park in enniskillen (beside portora royal school) with suggested flask of tea/coffee and have a rest period where people can go into the town or just talk about cars (aircooled only lol) there are toilet facilities here too

Head then for Ballyshannon which will take about 40-45 minute and enjoy the scenes of the lakes,

Arrive in ballyshannon and finish at Maggies Bar & Resturante where a main course meal can be got for €10 (which you don't have to get, if we have a few going I will push for a better deal) they have plenty of parking too, and break from here

Total milage is around 66 miles
What other run takes you through 5 different counties all inside 3hrs! lol

Going to start a list for numbers & booking the meal!

Looking forward to the run - hopefully the rain will stay away till Saturday evening. Shortly after having passed Glenfarne and crossed the Leitrim/Cavan border the N16 goes uphill after a left bend. There is a sort of lay-by overlooking part of Lough Macnean Upper (Thornhill Townland). I will be waiting for the arrival of the convoy there shortly after 11 am.
