Testimonials - Discover Ireland

Kevin Sheedy, London, England, UK

A great trip, the cycling was just right for me - a no more that averagely fit cyclist- at the end of the day I still easily had enough energy to enjoy the great hospitality of this beautiful county. Swimming in the Atlantic Ocean from a deserted golden beach was real unexpected bonus.

Anna Reid, London, England, UK

Thanks for another great trip I had a fantastic time, even if I did look like I was struggling sometimes.There is always good camaraderie on Red Spokes trips and I think this is down to you Dermot, you have a great knack of bringing people together.Love to do the Kyrgyzstan tour next year, I will now work on my fitness and hopefully see you there.

Richard Matheson, Leeds, England, UK

I loved the Ireland trip. The friendly people around Donegal were great. A highlight for me was the climb up Mt Errigal with the stunning views. Dermot and Dalla made everything pleasurable because of their support and encouragement.The B&Bs were comfy and the food in the evenings was as good as you could wish for. I would recommend this tour forthe mixof interesting cycling (inland and coastal) and the relaxed atmosphere.

Elizabeth Al-Khalifa, Birmingham, England, UK

Having taken up cycling again at 60, after years of doing the couch potato, this was my first trip with Red Spokes, and indeed my first to Ireland.I could not believe my luck - each day a tremendous ride climbing steadily through remote and magnificent mountain routes, then descending to the golden beaches and estuaries towards the end of the day, to a welcoming, homely B&B.And a relaxing evening enjoying the variety of good pubs, food and music wherever we went. All of this in the company of a friendly easy going group of fellow cyclists, and encouraging and enlivening leadership and support of the Red Spokes team.
