Cyclists taking advantage of the sunny day heading through Newport to reconnect with the Greenway.

There's one crossing point as the Greenway switches to the north side of the main road.

The old bridge at Furnace.

All cyclists today no other walkers.

Lots of beautiful small lakes.

Just 12km to go now!

Old cable reels put to artistic use - John Brady's 'The Cart'

On the other side of the bay the Reek is shrouded in sea fog.

Wooden bridge over the stream.

Sheep country

Stepping stones fording the river

Old stone ruin - the characteristic pink sandstone of the area

Walkers have to listen out for cyclists coming up behind them.

An island for every day of the year in Clew Bay - this one is surely for today - the Ides of March.

Another 3km to go - feet getting sore now.

The old railway bridges were well made - approaching Mulranny now.
