As part of a quite brilliant team-building exercise, the Ulster Rugby lads went on a bit of a road trip from Belfast to Donegal today and some of their players captured the experience with some great tweets.

In an exercise entitled ‘freefly’, which is explained in full by Ulster coach Mark Anscombe in the video below, the Ulster Rugby lads made a trip from Belfast to Donegal today, a trip they had to make without driving themselves or using public transport while completing some tasks along the way.

The experience was documented in a series of tweets sent out by Ulster Rugby players throughout the day and while they might have made for strange reading for Ulster fans who didn’t know exactly was going on, some of them are very funny and the lads seemed to be having a helluva good time.

Beats pre-season training anyway, right? Here are some of the best tweets from the Ulster players today and amid suggestions that the Munster squad are going to do something similar later this week, keep an eye out for the players hitching their way around the highways and byways of the province over the next few days.
