The day begins with the soft rattle of a van rolling out of Galway, the Atlantic air following as you head west toward peat bogs, low hills and glassy lakes. By the time you step onto a RadRhino electric fat tyre bike, the road narrows into lanes framed by stone walls and grazing sheep; the bikes’ wide tyres take the rough ground in stride while the motor eases the climbs, leaving you to notice the light on the water and the distant ridge-lines.
