This is a spin I've done variants of upwards of 50 times I would guess. A bit of a climb on the road gets me into Kilmashogue Forest and it's all off-road from there. I'll let the photos do the talking.
Welcome to Kilmashogue - timecheck 12:59 - beating the magical 13m barrier.
Sun through the beech trees - nice
Stackstown Golf Club - which we boarded through last Jan. Resisted temptation to ride through it today
This is the mess Coillte leave behind when they clear-fell
Still plenty of snow about in shaded parts
Opening out now, nice views across the Dublin Mountains and the city below
"Fairy Castle" and cairn - summit is 536m. Timecheck 52m. Snack time...
Kippure, the highest point in Dublin (757m) and the famous RTE transmitters on top
The track ahead, with view down to Dublin Bay and Howth in the distance
Just to prove I was there...
View back up from Three Rock masts
No mountain-biking. Hmmm. The start of the Boneshaker track. Starts out easy enough...
...and gets pretty gnarly
Self-portrait, and home for the clean-up.
Over and out - pedal on dudes. Print this post

Hey Dave, that looks amazing, great to see some pictures of Ireland in spring time, beats the hell out of the fires of hell we are barely enduring over here!
