We don’t really understand why the Ring of Kerry is more famous than the Ring of Beara – among bikers, anyway. Beara’s just spectacular. It’s pretty narrow and steep and twisty, almost like a quiet minor Alpine pass – in fact the Healy Pass that crosses the mountains is a genuinely brilliant pass.

We’re quite happy to sacrifice some of the coastal route to ride that, especially as a good stretch of it had just been resurfaced.
