Check this out. 26 miles over 2 days? I like the look of it. Thinking around March, mid to end of... have I posted this up too early maybe?

I like the sound of this, wild camping of course!  Not far of the time for posting a date for March, we'll see who comes back alive after the Mourne Way!

I'm gonna do a couple of sections of it, see what its all like. I remember someone saying some land owners have closed the right of way on their land.

March 17/18th? just a rough thought.

St. Paddy's Day, may make it more difficult for some?

Weekend before it? weekend after? I know no dates will suit everyone but I agree St Paddy's Day would just be silly, unless everyones got guinness in their platypus. :)

I really like the look of this too... Great suggestion Craigy123.  I can't attend the Mourne Way this weekend and was so disappointed.  Maybe this will ease my pain  :D

Definitely not posted to early.  Just about perfect timing if you ask me!  Gives everyone time to have a chat about it and get organised.

As for dates, the weekend of the 17th works best for me, but I will work in with whatever date you decide upon.  I'm pretty sure I can get a litre or two of Guinness stashed away somewhere in my ruck if we do settle on the 17th  ;)

Hmm, I'm pretty much free for every weekend that month as yet so I'll go with the majority I think. Make sure and proof your boots and maybe get the gaiters out too for this one.  ;)

Hi Craigy123

Hope you don't mind me editing your original post.

I've added a list of possible attendees, date depending, just to try and get things firmed up.  I think this could be an excellent couple of days.

My preferred date would be the 17th.  Could everybody interested say "Aye" and let us know what date suits and we'll try and go with the majority.

It's Craigy123's idea so he gets the final say  ;)

I'm in the same boat as that one ^^

its an aye from me too. I doesnt suit some of my own friends either but I can arrange another one sometime. No I dont mind at all. I was really just throwing the idea out. I was hoping it would develop into actually happening.
