Cycling Tour Through the Wine Country of Claire


In the town of Clare, the expedition traded off-road four-wheeled vehicles for off-road two-wheeled vehicles.  Thus the exploration of the Clare wine region began.

An old rail bed provided a perfect pedaling path through the rolling hills and vineyards.
