Nice one Marky. I was going to post some suggestions too.
For everyone's information the drive from Rosslare or Dublin/Dun Laoghaire to Castlegregory is about 4 hours at legalish speeds. For anybody coming in to Belfast from Stranraer you have to add another hour and a half. You might want to take this into account when looking at ferry arrival times on this side. There will be another ferry running from Swansea to Cork if they get a new boat in time. Cork to Castlegregory is two hours.

Should mention that Brittany Ferries go to Cork from Roscoff and Irish Ferries go to Rosslare from Roscoff and Cherbourg. Would be great to meet some TDMers from mainland Europe.

Obvious that we have to book a ferry but when is the best time? I dont want to give anyone my money some 9 months before sail time. When do they go up?

If there is enough interest I will try blagging a group discount. Fishguard to Rosslare will prolly be the most popular route? Lettuce snow if yar interested. I am guessing around 10bikes will be the magic number.

Sounds good!

I'd be in on this too if you get something worked out. I reckon the 11:30 on the 5th and the 15:00 back on the 12th.

For some reason the ferries leaving from Liverpool take about 8 hours to get to Dublin. I guess the economy passengers must have to row? So it's a Holyhead departure for me - the ferries use engines on that route, crossing in under 2 hours [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]
I'll probably be going to Dun Laogh. Depart 5/7 @ 8:55. Return 8/7 @ 18:00

Might be something to do with distances between them
