I'm incredibly envious; one of the things I have on my bucket list is a trip to Ireland (and Scotland). Plan to rent an adventure bike and tour the area one of these years. I'm a huge Irish Whisky fan (and Scotch) and dream of getting over there to ride and hit several of the distilleries.

And just to clarify (lol); I assume you mean the west part of Ireland...because west of Ireland is the ocean

Funny story - my wife actually had a trip over there planned for my 40th b-day as a surprise. Then an even bigger surprise occurred - she was pregnant with our first little guy (though not really as surprise as we were trying...lol).

So, my trip to Ireland turned into a dirt bike for my 40th...and now I'm here 3 years later on a GG (after going through a Yami 450 and KTM 300).

I'll definitely take you up on that offer if I'm able to scrub the pennies together and make it over there. I will do it, but it probably won't be for a few years; have a 2 and 4 year old and plan to spend as much time as possible with them while they're growing up

I'm in the States; live just outside of Portland, Oregon on the west coast. Fantastic area for riding anything with 2 wheels; whether street or dirt. Here's a shot from one of the places I like to get to when we have good weather.

I will definitely do that! Hope the break-up was amicable and it's a good thing

I like my GG200 a ton better than my KTM 300; it simply fits me better. Nothing against the Katoom, but it was too tall and I'm not that good of a rider, so the 300 was a bit much for what I ride. My GG feels much more planted and I didn't have to have the suspension re-valved or lowered; which was perfect. It's incredibly nimble on the tight single track we usually hit and I'm able to keep it online much easier.

I like it so much that I convinced my wife to let me sell her 250 4T so we could get another GG 200 2T in the garage; she likes the power and handling too.

Looking forward to additional pictures spooly - always cool to see other parts of the world

Your wife rides thats sweet!! I went from a kx 125 (first bike) to a 07, 300 im only getting comfortable on it now and I luv it..it really shows its quality on the tight up hill technical climb for me..im doing things on it I didn't know I was capable of..as im only riding about 6 months. .I took a ktm 300 for a test ride as I was thinking of buying it before I rode the gg and I found it a bit of an angry bull.. now maby it was the set up but the gg was on another level for me a beginner..just a lot easier to handle..I luv the power delivery from top to bottom and such a smooth delivery
