It doesn’t matter where you are from when you plan your bike packing or bike touring abroad Ireland is never in your plans in this episode today I will tell you why no one come do you know my name I’m the Portuguese guy and let’s start it hello my

Friends Jesus Christ this is Ireland I just arriving in home and completely soen but I go sh and we go talking like you see it’s horrible I hate to shoot indoors but with the weather today outside it’s impossible to shoot outside I think one of the main reasons

Do you watching this video it’s because you we don’t have any plans to coming to Ireland to make mik packing it’s very normal here in Ireland during all around the year we have two storms a week one day of fog and another day with forecast it’s it’s Bonkers in the summer the

Normal temperature here is about 18° and normally we have 2 weeks in the final of May beginning of uh June uh the temperatures 22 maximum 23 and the Irish people here calling the itat wve this is the weat wave here in Ireland for you know with this I I mean

If you’re planning to make a bike packing here in Ireland like minimum 3 days you surely in that three days we you catch some rain or some storm or fog uh during the the during the Spring Summer and Autumn and in the winter the temperatures go below minus

6° now let’s talking about paths roads and Greenways here in Ireland during the last four years I have done a lot of bik packing here in Ireland and we go divide this chapter in Greenways PS and Inter towns roads there is a lot of cars and truck traffic here on the roads

Connecting the small towns in Ireland the drivers here in Ireland sometimes driving uh safety but in the most of the cases have many irresponsibility when see a cyclist in the road don’t have any patience at all from Passing By Us in tight curves and uh it’s complicated because sometimes

You go in good on the left of the road and the car or the truck passing by you like half meter distance of from you or the bike and it’s scared if you know have Ste nerves uh it’s impossible to to to cycling in this type of roads and the

Condition of These Roads connecting small towns the tarmak yeah it’s a set acceptable is not a fantastic tarmak but is acceptable don’t forget my friend share like And subscribe this content help me a lot many thanks for you the Anarchy Reigns here on the rural roads the main users of these roads is

Normally is the people working on farm and using tractors small tractors big tractors sometimes like lores and uh the people here thinking a priority for everyone for cyclics pedestrians horses have have priority always having priority this is like a a tradition maybe the conditions of this road is

These roads these uh rural roads is deplorable and uh you see PS everywhere you see cow sheet everywhere and no one make the mess cleaning it’s it’s incredible don’t have any L to enforcement don’t have any type of enforcement on these rural roads it’s like a wild west in American in

1870 as I have said many times uh the pavement on the Greenways in France it’s more smooth than on these roads uh yeah God it’s like a completely roller coaster the green way here in the Ireland you can count the number of green wayes by the fingers of your

Hand and the mostly of that green wa is not suitable for uh for cycling for make bike packing it’s more for iers it’s meaning if you have a gravel bike uh in most case is not suitable for that Greenway it’s better you have a mountain bike it is important not forget

Uh if the greenway is on side of any River uh not forget the weather because when raining is everything is floated it’s because that I tell you it’s better a mountain bike and uh many times I ask him to myself why Ireland have the row

One I know have answer for you know this answer you need to come in and see by your eyes it’s unbelievable I could leave this chapter empty because I think it’s the mostly uh nice way to show no have any Bic basically not have any facility here

For bike Packers in Ireland for camping on the campsites in the summer is H expensive and the bike shops only in the big cities like Cork and dubling and in the a few small towns around Ireland have bike shops if you have any problem in the bike and while camping Jesus in

Atlantic way if you go into the West Coast it’s very complicated you find a spot while camping in the east coast have some but in the west coast no after what I said you asking why you live in Ireland and I tell you I love the Wild n

Of Ireland and the adventure is in granded on my soul and this is the answer see you on next episode my friend enjoy the life and if if you planning to comeing to here Ireland you know what you need to count see You
