Cycling the Wild Atlantic Way - 1-Day Self Guided Tour from Clifden
Overview
Welcome to cycling along the rugged Wild Atlantic Way to experience the dramatic land and seascapes of the west of Ireland. Connemara is punctuated by world famous views and sites, unique and ancient heritage and the geology and natural features of the region are in a class of their own.

-Original documents did not have meeting location on it. However after several emails we did figure it out the night before. - The bikes were just ok. The upright seating was good but they were heavy, clunky bikes, I thought. I chose a bike that had a skinnier seat, as I'm used to a racing bike . - To have that skinny seat meant that couldn't have a bike with any suspension, and as a result I noticed alot of jarring of the spine over a 40km period. - The bike that was assigned did not have a water bottle holder. I asked for one as it already had the bolts in place but was told by the lady that I would have to change bikes. (which meant a big wide seat) Not good. - The directions given for the self directed route were good with lots of highlights given for excursions. The man (owner?) giving the instructions was fabulous! -We were offered reflective vests for safety. - The helmets were well ventilated. - My husband's right bike handle (the foam cushion part) was rough and torn, so chaffy on the skin. The Round Stone bike route was beautiful. We had all types of weather over the course of 4 hrs and were surprised by a stunning couple of beaches along the way. We really did have a fabulous day, just thought that the bikes were a bit heavy, clunky and needed a bit of extra care. G& H Johnston, Ontario, Canada.
