Arose to glorious sunshine. It was main roads all the way once we reached Sligo. Stopped briefly in both Ballynacarrow and Tobercurry before having lunch in Swinford. Failed to find any shop selling '99s' in Castlebar so it was onwards to Westport where our longest day in the saddle culminated with a stiff and very unwelcome climb up into the town. We later spun out past Croagh Patrick and bathed our tired limbs in the sea at Old Head beach. Had dinner in Sol Rio - superb - and wandered across to Matt Molloys for one before calling it a day.
