Welcome to yet another UKGSer weekend away in the Leenane Hotel in beautiful Leenane, Co Galway, Sept 7th & 8th 2018


The rate for two nights B&B and dinner on both the Friday and Saturday is still a lowly €109pps,
Cost for a single, if you snore & can’t get anybody to share with you :rob is €139
But be warned - after a number of 'no shows' in 2016 due to an inclement forecast (we ended up having great weather) there will be penalties for late cancellations

As those who attended in 2014, 2015, 2016 & 2017 can confirm, it's excellent value
You'll need to book the hotel yourselves - 095 42249 or info@leenanehotel.com and mention (UKGSer)
But, being the west of Ireland, don't panic if you don’t get confirmation within 5 minutes :rolleyes:

Same format as usual - arrive Friday evening for grub & a few soft drinks, a ride out on the Saturday followed by a sit down dinner and then youse can all bugger off home on the Sunday
Have a look at last years event for more details - http://www.ukgser.com/forums/forumd...t-IV-Leenane-Co-Galway-1st-3rd-September-2017

There's some awesome biking roads around the area so even if you don't fancy the group ride-out there's plenty to see & do.
And if your favorite pillion doesn't fancy being on the bike all day there's seaweed baths at the hotel, a cruise on Killary harbour, shopping in Clifden as well as Connemara National Park & Kylemore Abbey within easy reach. There's also historic Westport for those who like something peaceful or The Wild Atlantic Way for something, em, a bit wilder….

If you've never been to the area, or indeed Ireland, before why not take a couple of extra days for a bit of a tour around ? We’d be happy to provide recommendations of roads to ride & places to see.

Post on this thread when you've booked & I'll add your name to the 'attendance list' :bounce1:bounce1

No better part of the world in good weather. I was in Wales for 4 days & it was like mid summer on the continent :thumb

All added to the list
 
Booked. I will be working on my grumpy face between now and then. Hope to be proper crotchety by then.


Jockser is my hero 😉
 
Pfffft :blast

Ange and I are away first 2 weeks in Sept so sadly will miss out, it's my favourite GS meet and the only time I ever renew any interest in riding on roads, those Connemara lanes are so sweet and the company perfect.

Enjoy :beerjug:
