A rest day, I only rode 10 in the morning and sat in Virginia’s car for a 30-40 mile drive to a beautiful estate called Moore Hall, built in 1792 by a pioneering Irish family. Ironically it was burned to the ground in 1923 during the Irish Civil War. This was so because the Moore who was its present occupant, Senator Colonel Maurice Moore, the first Irish envoy to South Africa, was supportive of the treaty that gave Ireland its freedom from England while surrendering Northern Ireland to the British.
