Under a car for me :(
Fixing it, not crashing into it, wouldn't be the first time mind...

When I rouse myself to get up and out I'll probably be somewhere between Abergele and the Ponderosa more than likely taking in the Brennig run and possibly calling in at Betwse & Conwy.

Peak district for me, stopped for lunch at the Bulls head in Moneyash.
Met a guy who was 74 riding an 09 factory Tuono, good effort, his mate of a similar age was on a BMW full carbon sports bike!!!!! FFS

Ride out to Aberystwyth turned out to be the biggest crock of sh*t ever. Set out at 9:30am from Quatt Cafe and didn't get there until 2pm! Cue a sh*t slow pace and barely touching 60mph on straights let alone the route, we would have just been better off sticking to the A44 instead.
Ended up leaving early to meet a mate in Welshpool, was a lot more fun on my own and after we met up. Waste of a f**king morning... |

Give us a shout next time your up here, those are tourist routes, and can be clogged at the best of times. |

True,that's why I tend to favour the smaller,less travelled B roads wherever possible.
Also I tend to stay further north,don't very often venture as far as Welshpool as I used to have family living there and the route got so tedious I could ride/drive it in my sleep. We do have a sort of unofficial Northern Posse run that will happen later on sometime,last time we met at the Ponderosa as everyone knew where that was. I'd offer to lead a route around some of my favoured roads but as I tend to stick to the posted limits (+ vat ) it may be a little slow for some. Although if you want to try and exceed the limit on somewhere like the Nant y Garth I'll be surprised. |

Sounds good to me Ian, I'm of a similar mentality really, unless its a really open and clear road, I'm mr sensible these days, my job depends in me driving, so I can't be getting into trouble with the law. |
