ABR Ireland Rally 10 to 12th May 2013 - Official Sign up Thread

[Heff]

Sorry Heff were pulling out of this trip mate, im totally loaded with cold from camping last weekend at mags "into the valley" rally, and as our lass isnt feeling too grand either, we have decided to pull out of this one and re-book the ferry for a later date. Hope to make it to the next one though!

BTW..Dave M is going to bring the ABR charity batton back to England instead of me.

No problem Milshy, was a bit under the weather a few days ago myself.

Maybe next time.

List amended

Hi DaveM

The Baton Bearer ´tis I!!

It is quite possible I won´t get there until the Saturday - as I have a meeting on the Friday I can't get out of - but don´t worry, I will be there!

Look out for either a beige K100LT BMW - or a red XT660Z (Idris) - both have an ABR sticker on the front screen. That said my avatar is a bit of a clue as to what I look like!

I´ll no doubt find you easily enough as I´ll be wandering around troubling all those present to part with the spare coinage in support of the cause - while also saying hi to one and all (and trying to get some blood back into that 'ol rear end - it's going to be a bit of a flying visit!).

Looking forward to a great ride and a good pint!
Pat

Riding across from Co Fermanagh on Friday, leaving about 15:30 or so. Dont intend on taking all main main roads so should be there about 6 or so.

Going through Monaghan, Keady, Newtownhamilton, Camlough, Newry and then to campsite.

Anyone else coming from this direction at all?

Not quite, travelling down from donegal, Leterkenny(about1545)-strabane-omagh-aughnacloy-armagh-newry- campsite(about 1830).
Is there anyone else travelling the same way?

Anybody heading from or through Dublin interested in meeting up?
How about Lusk Service Area on the M1 between Junction 4 and 5 at about 2.00PM?

Could do the coast roads north of Dundalk when they get interesting.

Hi Robert,
I get off my ferry at Dun Loeghaire at about 1pm, so I could meet you there. I'll stop there and wait until 2pm. It's always good to enjoy the ride with someone.
I'm on a GS Adv.
cheers
Mark

Mac90 I can make a detour and meet you at Aughnacloy, considering the weather at the moment would be better to take a more direct route. Let me know a rough time you will be coming through at. I get home from work at around 3:30 so should be on the road about 4:15. Should be there to meet you at around 5ish if thats ok. I'll be on a light blue F650GS, ABR sticker on screen.

[Heff]

Right then


I want to know who has upset the Weather Gods? :S


Was down at the site last night to finalise a few things, it was quite pleasant.

Today, back to more rain :S

[dmac]

More showers for the weekend rather than all out rain I think. Might not be too bad....

[mac90]

should be there about 5 or shortly after. pm sent.
