Day 7 Virtual Cycle Against Suicide 2020

Day 7 Virtual Cycle Against Suicide 2020
Cavan to Roscommon
GOOD MORNING EVERYONE ON DAY 7 !
HOPE YOU ENJOYED YOIUR FEAST LAST NIGHT?
Whatever rain we are having came last night and even though its cold now, it will be a beautiful day today. The road to Roscommon is flat so you might have a bit of work to do today. We have a selection of ELECTRIC BIKES on our 40ft dedicated bike carrying wagon. Where, incidentally Christy Montague assures me that every bike has its own stall which is padded and secured. The ELECTRIC BIKES are for anyone struggling with the pace today. We know that always by Day 7 people start to flag and look for a second wind. Well, not to worry today.
Actually the Margaret Levingston who drives the courtesy 44 seater luxury bus was saying that she has had no one on her bus all week. Even the Joe Dixon and Micheline Murphy are not availing of the bus. Im told they are editing photos on the move on their bikes> Now that's impressive! GIVE IT UP FOR JOE AND MICHELINE!!
This morning we are leaving here and heading for Granard were we will have our excellent lunch stop. after lunch we will have the usual cyclist briefing. Now there have been complaints that a lot of the cyclists are sloping off and lying in the sun at these times. That has to stop. Yesterday when Titch was giving his 'little chat' there was NO ONE THERE! And he was cryin' ! Not a pretty site! So please give your attention. These 'little chats' are for nobodies benefit. Just makes Titch feel good. ITS OK NOT TO FEEL OK TITCH!
After Granard we take the beautiful scenic route to Roscommon Town. I don't think we have ever stayed there before. Only passed through it in 2016 I think. So that is something to look forward to.
Because there is no hotel in Roscommon that passed the scrutiny of our dedicated and particular Front of House manager Darrell Hayden it was decided that we would bus everyone to The Radisson Blu Hotel in Athlone. If anyone would like a local hostelry in Roscommon please see our accommodation manager Andy Mc Girl.
So if we are all ready to go. I hope you made your bed before you left?
