This 5km restriction malarkey....

 Yep, still in Ireland.  Actually, I can't think of a better place to be riding out this Covid-19 thingy.  Luckily I still have my job, the weather is getting nicer, and the vaccines are being rolled out (slowly, but surely).  I completely agree with the restrictions the Irish government have put in place, but I'm getting weary.  So are many others around here....weary to the point of taking the piss.  The amount of traffic on the roads is way, way higher than it should be if people are taking essential trips only within their 5km radius.  Main street Greystones seems as busy as it always was pre-Covid.

Anyways, to stay sane we are really taking advantage of forest walks, almost always staying within our 5km (ok, maybe stretching it to 8km).  Almost daily walks up in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains has kept us sane.

In two days the restrictions are being relaxed and now we'll be able to venture within our country for exercise.  I can't wait to get back up in the hills of Wicklow!
