End of Day 2

What a first cycling day.
Everyone did their hour on the Turbo Trainer or walked or ran their required distance/time.
Well done everyone. this is the way we will get through this.

We left Galway city from The Bish at dead on 10am.
Donald Trump did the motivational speech. Reminded everyone to fill their bottles with some diluted disinfectant. And switch our bike lights on. Our safety officer was cringing.
Eamon Ryan was our guest starter and he reminded us about our co2 emissions until we got out into the countryside.
And we were off.
Trip to Claregalway was tough , fighting our way through the breakfast traffic. But we made it.
Some wanted to know. Seeing we were VIRTUAL could we not have gone via Connemara! Some actually did and got to the Sos beag before the rest of us.
The sun was out, it was warm and being all downhill we were coasting nicely.
Marshals were doing their usual thing. Showing off their cycling skills. Flying up and down the place doing their stuff. Pink really suits some of them!
The orange Ferrari was finding it hard to keep ahead of us for most of the day and we arrived in Castlebar at 10.45am.
In time for lunch.
Everyone was then transported to Breaffy House in limousines for a good afternoons sleep and to get ready for a big day tomorrow.
Tomorrow is Castlebar to Sligo staying at the excellent Sligo Park Hotel.
97 km tomorrow so get good sleep.
