    I have a few countries I want to go to but out of all the island countries iv been to Aruba, PR, Jamaica, Bahamas, Nantucket. Bermuda is by far my favorite can't recommend it enough. The whole place is like a resort there is no crime no litter it's just cool. People are super friendly and you can just drive on a moped and end up at a cool place. Hopefully I will be able to do another Bermuda race soon.

    It's awesome, I've been twice. Do some searching, tons of LEO on the dragon(it's still awesome and still with driving). But there's lots of other equally awesome roads/routes down there to drive.

    I would love to do that on a bike..... LOL...But those days are waaaay behind me.

    This is what I have in mind. Unfortunately this one is a 2008 with over 100K mi on it. I want a 2010+ with a lot fewer miles.

    Last time I was down there there was a fricken Honda Ruckus rally going on. Those stupid things would be doing like 3mph at the tops of hills. Most moved over when safe, but there were always those few dbs who would just not pull off to let traffic pass.

    Those are good riders. Most people down there are bad ones or fat guys with a huge fatty sitting on back of a giant ass harley with the turning radius of a semi


    It would be a blast to ride on a mid size enduro/ dual sport on some sticky tires. I don't care so much for going fast as carving corners all day at speed.

    Well yeah the hardley riders. I wasn't ready suggesting one of those. Although a guy in an m109 kept up with us pretty good on the skyway one year

    The skyway had some pretty good straight sections iirc. You know, for driving at a sensible speed...

    If you go try to hit the dragon early in the morning. It gets busy the later in the day you're there.

    As for travel I cannot recommend Ireland enough. We spent a week and half there on our honeymoon and would go back in a heartbeat.

    Great food, great drinking, really nice people, everyone speaks English, and the speed limit when not going through a town is 100kph (~60mph) and the roads there are super narrow and twisty. So much fun to drive on. We had a diesel focus hatch with a 6speed manual and with the eurospec suspension and 6 speed it was a blast to drive around.The country

    You eat any haggis?

    Looks and sounds absolutely disgusting, but when in Rome...

    I'll have to see if I can dig up the video my wife shot of the typical roads in Ireland.
