Wicklow Fires and the Sally Gap

Wicklow Fires and the Sally Gap

I was thinking about heading to Laragh in the morning for a spin but not sure if it worth it. Is Miltary Road closed from the gap heading back to Dublin? Also seems to be reports of tar melting and sand being spread on it so that should make it fun??


Usual route is Hollywood to Laragh for a coffee them up to the Gap and left or right depending on the mood but don’t fancy it if I’ll need a gas mask?


Anybody been up or know the crack?

Thanks for the help

Thanks for the help

Myself and my brother were out today for a spin. Somewhere between Rathangan and Naas on a back road my brother ran out of juice.

We were stopped on the side of the road for no longer than one minute when a guy in a van pulled up and asked if we were ok.

“Ran out of petrol” Ger said

“No problem, I have some here in the van”

Out he gets with a gallon of petrol and a ton dish.

How lucky can you get. We were stopped on the road for no longer that 5 minutes then off we went again.

Fair play to the van driver who also told us he is a biker himself,

If your reading this, Thanks again. :bikerie:

First time biker insurance

First time biker insurance

Decided i want to get myself a motorbike! But I can’t decide whether to get an A1 or A2 license, I would like to not pay a fortune on insurance, anyone any info on what the price differences between these categories are? I tried calling insurance companies but none can give me good information, all I got was that the price would depend on whether I had a learners permit or full license no matter what category I was in. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fuel pump issues/troubleshooting + Where to buy?

Fuel pump issues/troubleshooting + Where to buy?

I think the fuel pump on my Z shit itself. Bike started bogging before cutting out on me. Pushing the starter button does nothing but dash and light and all are lit up. There is no “priming” noise at all from the fuel pump so Im thinking this or something that feeds it has gone kaput from the heat???


Anyone know if a replacement can be bought here off the shelf or am I looking at ordering one?


Any advice on what else it might be?
