In true NTSR tradition John (SCO) took advantage of his  recent tete a tete with the board walk ,and subsequent enforced rest to do a bit of browsing and arrived today on yet another Carbon/XTR /650b beauty which strangely wil be just in time for Spain 😉

Big crowd today with The brother (but yet again no other brother ), Mr P , PS , DocL , Alex, Eamon , COC and Herself, O and of course the late Scullion. Straigforward route initially , giants pad , Fallow loop , trails to tunnel corner and tunnell. Then because of the obvious howling gale on the sea-side of the mountain we attempted a reverse bath , howver with Kenny and The COC in charge of navigation we went from too low to too high and ended up on yet another long explore through energy sapping tufty grass . Eventually emerged above Knowshee and again missed the turn down to Post , ending up back at the mast where Mr Power extracted a large tyre coral ..shame.

To avoid the wind we dropped back down to fallow corner and shamefully I departed here . Kenny will hopefully pass on the Garmin link the rest followed out towands yellow water .(thanks Kenny)
