about cost:
you should have seen how much it cost to ride in california, new zealand and so on in the past. ireland is cheap as chips by comparison. having only been to 2 SSWC's before - my view is that the mood and feel of it is waay different to the UK's and EC's (both of which have their own charm and character).
even if it is once in a lifetime trip to a SSWC - it will be worth the pilgrimage.
(bring a donkey and, if you can find them, three wise men)
Since when did every SSWC get free camping?
I seem to remember....
Sweden - sort yourself out in Stockholm, capital of a very expensive country - nobody complained.
Scotland - sort yourself out in Aviemore - rip off central for accom in August - nobody complained.
Wales - sort yourself in Bristol for the pre race party. Then 1 night free camping on a midge infested hillside with Canadian burp rapping
🙂
Good luck with the organising Irish peeps - it must be a thankless task.
Ferry booked this week, got the last berth on the trip home!
I have been able to justify it by taking my parents home (too old to hire a car now) to Mayo (where I lived as a little boy) and Limerick. Double whammy is my cousin being ordained a week before SSWC just up the road so will be a good couple of weeks for me.
If the SSWC team are still looking for entertainment ideas what about getting the localish Gemma Hayes to sing a few songs - that would be worth the expense;-)

In terms of ferrys/travel, we are going to contact Stena Line/Fast Net and see if they will offer a discount to those traveling from the UK. Is there anyone else that you think we should contact??
Let us know by email ASAP on this please as a motor home is bloody expensive to bring over as well.
Right folks, re camp site prices, we have stripped back the costs and this is the best we can come up with and we hope this will make you all happy! Just to tell you again that we want your stay around Kilfinane to be as great as possible and we hope this helps.
Pre-bookings will be flat rate of €10 per person per night, payable in advance. Drop-in bookings on the weekend on 27th August (if space is available) will cost €12 per person per night.
See you at the main camping ground (I hope) of Kilfinane Forest FC.
1 big campervan, 2 people & 1 dog for the Friday & Saturday nights at least
Any news on those ferry discounts, about to book soon!
ferry discounts, I was intending to wait and see but bottled it a due to limited availability.
So is camping now finalized, I don't want to go a book that then find the fee gets reduce, the missus will have my knackers on a platter...
Are there any more financial surprises yet to be discovered? Saturday evening entertainment, Parking...
I'm in balls deep now, nowt left 🙄
Camping invoice just came tonight.
40 euros = £35 for 2 nights for 2 people isn't that bad.
SSWC 2007 the B&B was a lot more.
Will pay it tomorrow(ish)
Just had an email in from Kate from SSWC's saying
"We are happy to announce we are negotiating a deal with Stena Line, all the details and links to the SSWC exclusive offers should be up on Monday."
That's not bad. Fair play.
