Found some nice trails. And some nice bogland. Nice soft bogland. With holes. Big holes that could swallow a bike. Was fun dragging her out.. you know one of the best qualities of a dirtbike in a boghole is the way the back tyre digs […]
On Friday afternoon a bunch of the guys and I headed towards Doon in Co.Limerick for the Paddy Dakar. Gazebos were raised, BBQs were lit, tyres were kicked, burgers devoured, and one or two beverages may have been consumed. It was a grand old weekend. […]
Road tripping the North-West coast from Belfast around the Causeway Coast to Derry and all the way around auld Donegal, searching for the famed chicken ranches made famous by Goats Don’t Shave.
I mounted a GoPro Hero3+ onto a rear facing snake-arm that attached to the peak of my helmet for some reverse view photographic experimentation. Shot in PES mode, and captured a still image every few seconds or so until I got bored and went home […]
Roadtrip!! Took the GT86 to Scotland on a mission to find Nessie!! We searched all over Aviemore and the Cairngorms, all the way in Inverness and back.
Out exploring the hills and trails around Co.Clare on the CRF250X. Found some new trails, some lakes, took some pictures, had a blast!
Perhaps it’s a bit late in the season, but a trip to Italy is always nice. To Aprica this time, and the thermal spa at Bormio, again, obviously !!! Battering an old rental ‘Firefly’ Fiat Punto up the hills, in dodgy-as-fuck snowchains. Being the only […]
Taking a guided tour of the Andalucia Mountains with Riders of the Lost Trail. Based out of Cortes de la Frontera, Phil has a fleet of new KTM EXC350s that are well maintained and start on the button. These bikes were light years ahead of […]
We’ve been gowling around this nifty fifty racing the past while, so it’s only right to put up a short video of our antics. This is me, starting the race and going well for the first two laps till the inevitable happens. I mean, it […]
September 2012 lap of Europe. I headed East for as far as I could without overdoing it on the mileage. 200 – 300km per day, sometimes more, but usually less. Got as far as Ljubljana before I had to start back west again. Covered around […]
Few trips to NYC / Boston in 2011 & 2012 No one had heard of these new GoPro cameras back then, but I thought they were great. Was only disappointed that my first one sunk.. that’s how I learned they don’t float.
In 1996, at the tender young age of 18, I went off and joined the Army. Why? I’m not really sure. I wasn’t sure then. I’m not sure now, but it seemed like an ok idea at the time. My 14 years in the Irish […]
This was just nuts. No other words for it. Spare tyres checked in and brought on the plane, bikes shipped in advance. Fork seals busted on day one. Magnums of Belvedere and Grey Goose every night. 500km stages through the Rif and High Atlas Mtns. […]
