Ireland By Motorcycle Episode 4 Part 1 The Healy Pass

[@neilmackinnon3371]

Being retired, I always tour during school term time... and that fantastic ride up the Healy Pass is one of the reasons why. Getting the whole pass more or less to yourself... what utter luxury. One for my growing bucket list. Thanks for taking us along.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

There's definitely something very appealing about having this scenery all to yourself!

[@paulpartridge2674]

I love Ireland, superb biking paradise. Probably need a couple of trips to explore all the best locations. Great series Shaun , brings back great memories.👌

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I'll need another bash at it, to explore it some more. Impossible to see it all in a week!

[@ManicMarvin]

Brilliant... Brings back memories from 19 years ago. Stopped at that mountain 'shop' (no graffiti back then either) for photos and have a lovely picture of me and my late father sitting on the wall with the pass behind us. Wonderfully place. Thank you Sean. 👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

What a great memory to have and share with your dad👍

[@martinhughes9769]

Great roads and very little traffic brilliant for biking

[@docholliday2364]

"Indeed" break left grip seat with arse and relax. Stunning .

[@benkelly2190]

Great tour on a great bike. Much appreciated.👍🏻

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Yeah I'm really enjoying it, great bike!

[@markmundy3435]

Bet you're glad you did it now, it's probably the best pass to do in Ireland.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Very glad, what an amazing road with such beautiful scenery!

[@Poguemuhone]

15 years ago was the last time myself and my wife drove up the healy pass in a 2002 daihatsu terrios,,we decided to go up as fast as possible, that little terrios with rear wheel drive was like a rally mini.no traffic the same day,the whole mountain to ourselves. Next time soon will be on a motorbike. Enjoyed your video immensely. Michael.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Cheers Michael, glad you enjoyed it🤘😎 Would imagine it's more challenging in a car with regards to traffic, that could get pretty tedious!

[@johnsteel4719]

Amazing scenery with a little bit of shite weather thrown in. Look forward to the afternoon sun instalment….

[@jondonnelly]

Wow, that road is beautiful.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

The whole day was stunning, more to come!👍😜

[@thomas22961]

Didn’t do Healys pass . Looks awesome 😀👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Luckily the owner of the Tatt shop that I spent 100 quid in, put me onto it!

[@owenosullivan6043]

The Healy Pass is one of my favourite roads in the country, I live less than an hour from there so it's a nice handy route to do and come down in to Kenmare and home, it's a nice loop to do. Hope you enjoyed it.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Living there must be awesome 👌

[@IainOConnorMotorcycles]

We took same advise and diverted up Healey last year also on Triumph 1200 at the time .Lovely .

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Was just out of luck, the guy in the local Tatt shop (where I spent 100 quid) told me about it and said I should definitely ride it. Top bloke!

[@steveragnar3977]

Did it last year awesome. Great stuff fella👍bikieboys

[@IanTed]

Never done that route, saved in Google Maps! I think I have next year’s trip planned, the rest of the WAW I didn’t finish in 2018, the bit south of Tralee and a nice ride south through Wales to get there, oh it’s rough being retired🤣this year it’s a week exploring the islands and coast north of Glasgow🙄😉. Good video Sean, very jealous👍

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I'll definitely need another visit, it's impossible to see it all in one go!

[@thebikerguysofficial]

Great video Shaun , what Cracking views 🤩 a lot less traffic than your Scotland trip by the looks of it 👍🏻🏍️💨💨💨 ride safe buddy 👍🏻

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Timed it to perfection m👍😜

[@stewartentwiistle952]

Amazing...... doing it in September myself... great music as well

[@thelikeablerider8800]

You'll love it, what an amazing day's riding!

[@INNOVVDashCam]

Another great video! Wonderful trip!

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Thank you very much, it really was a memorable trip👍😜

[@mikejgriffiths]

Very very nice. I should go seeing as it's only a ferry trip away.

[@thelikeablerider8800]

You got a Sat Nav yet, get yourself over there Mike!👍😜

[@norriemasson4080]

Nice one Shaun, I think was in Scotland when you did this trip, it would’ve been good to meet up.

[@Sharpey76.]

Some stunning views bet your loving it :) hope the mighty tiger is performing well

[@thelikeablerider8800]

The Tiger was an utter pleasure throughout the trip👍😎

[@ticthedog6095]

Great video of a beautiful parts of the world. You timed it perfectly the first w,end in June is the Killarney bike week, so every man and his dog would be out riding the Healy Pass. How are you enjoying the Triumph?

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Loving the bike m8, I'm so glad to have a decent amount of comfort, and it's no less fun than the XR in the twistys!👍😎

[@seabreezerider1309]

Ok thanks for the info I'll look at it. I use a DJI with both Bluetooth and plug in mics but always look at alternatives. Your commentary level sounds perfect

[@thelikeablerider8800]

@seabreezerider1309 doesn't sound like that straight out of the device of course, needs a fair bit of editing👍

[@chefhugob]

You were lucky healy pass usually busy, cyclists especially. Mind the horse manure in the black valley

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Timed to perfection, apart from all the horses of course!

[@elvisthewart670]

How you liking the triumph would you say its a better touring bike than the xr

[@thelikeablerider8800]

Most definitely, it's much more comfortable and just as fun to bung about in the bends!

[@seabreezerider1309]

I'm curious what helmet mic are you using it seems to be linked to a zoom app?

[@thelikeablerider8800]

I use an external mic recorder, the Zoom F2 BT, which has its own app, so I can control it via my phone.

[@P6_7R_Nick]

14:17 where is that please Shaun? Black Mountains?

[@thelikeablerider8800]

It's the Healy Pass on the west coast of Ireland 😜

[@P6_7R_Nick]

@@thelikeablerider8800 nice one. Cheers 👍

[@P6_7R_Nick]

Oh Shaun, you sound soo Bristish with your rambling grumblings. Oh I think you need some more practice at blurring out the speedo 🫣😂🤣🫢🤫 Bruce said just leave it in mph when in kph countries, it's easier 🫣✊😂

[@thelikeablerider8800]
