Inch Abbey, Downpatrick, Co Down. Lovely setting along the Quolie River.

Directions from Downpatrick. Take the Belfast Rd (A7) , after you cross over the river take the first road on the left (Inch Abbey Rd funny enough). The first turn on the left takes you to the site

Love to be able to find our old family photos. I remember visiting there very young and a lot of photographs. My grandfathers used to take us all over the coastline and inland. I still remember it as the best scenery too.

Indeed Colin it was. Thought that was you on the 660Z. Great biking weather at the moment.

Yeah, we touched lucky for a 4 day trip down last weekend.
First time for me over the Healy pass
.
Hopefully 2022 will bring the ABR Ni ride out back on track again.
