What plans/hopes do you have for touring in 2022?
- Thread starter Noobie
- Start date
Tell you what if I’m not dead 1st, I’ll be pissed if I don’t get this bike and do some bullet/ordinance-free riding this year.
We’re only 1500 miles from the furthest Ukrainian border. That’s barely an east coast trip back home, 1/2 a day’s drive/ride. Or 5 mins via ICBM.
Does the number 5 bus go to Spain
Anyone into serieus horse riding ? I can recommend Trans Wales Trails, they do various multi day and day rides, fantastic to cross wales over a 4 day period, Starting in Pengenffordd in the Brecon Beacons national park and ending on the beach in Borth, just above Aberystwyth, for experienced riders only, epic scenery, fast pace, none of this trotting around at slow speed.I went Horse Riding near Emporia Brava in Spain when on a Sky Diving holiday - the 4 girls with us were all horsey people so I went with them one day, scariest event of my life on that big black fecking horse
Look them up and watch some you tube vids, well worth the money!.
We could have a pin the roof on a shed competition?
To be fair, being firmly attached wasn't the issue.

Martha’s Vineyard otherwise known as Amity Island. Jaws is my favourite film, I’d love to visit there, plenty of pictures please AC.
The island next to Martha’s is Nantucket…

Been asked to organise a trip to Ireland by my cronies, never been on the bike so need to do some research
I’ve just booked the first one. Portsmouth-Santander. Over the Picos, several days down through Spain, probably to Malaga. Then over the mountains to the flat lands of Jerez de la Frontera.
Three days there then wind our way back.
The Pyrenees is another trip but that’s as far as planning has got. Along with a trip to Croatia.
What could possibly go wrong?

She is an American Miniature. We also have William, a Miniature Shetland. His previous owners dumped him on a roundabout in a nearby village.

- Just a note to make sure you are UP TO DATE before you go to Spain!!!! as they have moved the goal posts and you now need to be boosted if a booster was due
- From 1 February onwards, at least 14 days must have passed since being fully vaccinated (with both doses of a 2-dose vaccine or one dose of a single-dose vaccine) before arrival in Spain. Your date(s) of vaccination must be specified and your final dose must have been administered within 270 days prior to travel to Spain. If you completed your vaccination (with both doses of a 2-dose vaccine or one dose of a single-dose vaccine) more than 270 days prior to travel to Spain, you must be able to show proof of having receiving a booster jab.
Nothing complicated there then
I think @West Cork Paul does some super bike trips...
You can come to Ireland without being vaccinated. Birkenhead to Belfast, Stena Line, night crossing, very comfortable. No checks of anything, not Covid cert, not immigration, not customs, not Border Force, nothing
, then it’s just across the non-existent border into ROI. You’ll be grand.Speak to me, even if you don’t want to partake in one of my guided tours, although they are exceedingly good value (I’m the Mr.Kipling of bike tours
), I’ll be happy to advise/offer suggestions.www.swi500.ie

Yep, it's that time of year again 👍, time to start telling you all about this year's guided tours, the first of which is in May. The full itinerary is below and any questions, just ask. This year I'm using a boutique (read small and well appointed) B&B who cater for bikers. They have just 6...

I’m also thinking about organising one around Northern Spain in October
I'm not sure it will be safe, you know... without mandating vaccination..... I mean..... you really should be asking for the vaccine passport?You can come to Ireland without being vaccinated.

Is this 'The Liverpool Pathway?
Joking aside, if this is a legitimate way for us 'uncontaminated' to avoid covid passports testing etc. and get to travel then count me in. When is your next vacancy please?
