Wild Atlantic Way In 1 Week : Day 2 – Kenmare to Ballybunion
Update : 19/02/2019 : The YouTube video of Day 2 is now available for your viewing pleasure…Enjoy!
Tuesday 28th July 2015 and it is Day 2 of the #WAWIn1Week. Today’s route takes me from Kenmare, Co. Kerry to Ballybunion, Co. Kerry. I had worked this out at about 230 miles when planning the route, however this is a long, long leg. It’s probably closer to 280 – 300 miles and the with a pretty heavy volume of traffic, and some pretty small tight roads it leads to a long day in the saddle. Today I was on the bike for a solid 12 hours with few stops. Lunch for example was about 2.30pm at a garage on a picnic bench on the way to Dingle. Tasty fresh sandwiches though, and friendly staff so it was grand, but time was the main issue I had today.
This section of the route took me to two signature points today :
- Bray Head
- Radharc Na Mblascaodai
