DeLoreans in Donegal
#1
Hello DOC members in Ireland, 

This is Mike, a non-owning member/enthusiast from Scotland. I was bikepacking from Derry/Londonderry to Portnoo, Donegal yesterday to meet up with family (headwinds all the way!) and as I was coming into Letterkenny was suddenly surrounded by a glorious flock of DeLoreans. It was honestly a fantastic moment as I’d never seen a D out of the blue like that and to see so many at once... 

Anyway, I just wanted to say I was the lunatic with the bright orange backpack punching the air like a madman and waving. Thanks for waving backSmile 

Will the members be in Donegal for a few days or was it just a day trip? I now have the use of a car and would love to say hello if it was possible. 

All the best and thanks for making my day yesterday, 

Mike (member 1000...something - don’t have my card with me)

Hi Mike,

Apologies for the slow reply, have only just been shown this post. I remember seeing you! We were only in Donegal for sat night/sun morning and then all went our separate ways. It was a great road trip which I will write up for a future mag, until then here's what I managed to photograph.

Who needs to wait years for an official 'Eurofest', when we can gather a 'flock" like that? Well done everyone.
