Day 3 - Donegal to Easkey

Day 3 we started in Donegal. This was a day of national roads. Whilst quicker they aren't exactly inspiring. We were heading for Sligo which was about 70km. We stopped outside Sligo, in Grange for the usual lunch of cheese, salami and bread. Once we arrived at Sligo we stopped for supplies. On the other side of Sligo we had our 2nd Mr Whippy.

The road to Easkey was hard going cycling into a headwind but it was worth it once we pitch the tent on the beach. No one else around. Dinner was cous cous, courgette and salmon very yummy. We went to sleep to the sound of the waves.

Day 3 stats:
Distance - 107km in 6 hr 40 min
