The Irish Motorcycle Action Group is the best source of information on absolutely everything about motorcycling in Ireland. On the off chance they don't know something they will go out of their way to help you. I say this cos they've assisted me more than once or twice. Their web address is http://www.iol.ie/~maglink

Hi again Nigel. Sorry I misread your post first. A friend of mine just left for India yesterday from Ringaskiddy, Cork. She managed to get a carnet alright from the UK I think. She had to put £3000 in locked bank account that she gets back when she returns to Ireland. If you send me your email address, I'll pass it on to her and I'm sure she'll send you exactly how she got it.
So long...
