Was thinking of going Bethesda - Capel Curig - Betws - Crimea Pass- Festiniog - Dolgellau - Barmouth- along coast to Harlech, Beddgelert - Nant Gwynant - Llanberis Pass back to Betws for some dinner at the Stables.

Mountain Weather forecast is wall to wall :sun: :sun: :sun: 20deg all weekend :shock:
SO GET YOUR ARSES TO WALES!!!!!!

There will be lots of dopy tourists driving at 10mph looking at the view and lots of motorbikes so BE SAFE!

The sun usually brings out Mr plod so 30's and 40's mean it coz the cash vans will be out. Dont cain it down the long straights on the A5 unless you have good vis, hand helds are known to jump out the bushes. Finally the 30 limit starts before the sharp bend into Bethesda the following long straight is still 30 and on sunny sundays has a handheld hidden along it.

There is still the offer of my spare room and a BBQ if peeps want to travel down today
Looks to be a fab day out.
AV IT! :dance:


That's the spirit! :yup:

So want to do this run, even though knackered from driving to London today, and XB questionable in warm air. Maybe if I can avoid 'KEY ON-FAN ON' circuit mode I'll be there. ;)

We're running a bit late this morning but will be setting off within the hour.

If we don't get to Fitzpatricks for 11.00 am don't wait for us, we'll catch you en-route somewhere or at the Stables in Betws.

Apologies, we're normally early risers but we needed an extra hour of beauty sleep - not that it did us much good :D....

Any road up, apart from not being in Bethesda on time we spent a couple of hours exploring the north east of Wales on minor roads. Glorious weather, stunning scenery and very little traffic - just perfect :P...

Team Yorkshire, on the B4401 alongside the River Dee...

We eventually met up with Edd in Betws. Martin and Flossy arrived shortly before we headed home. Betws was packed but we managed to find a parking space opposite Stables and the Royal Oak pub....

A good photo of Nate. Looks like it's the first time he's used a knife and fork. Good job Jane was there to supervise him :rofl:

Nice to see you all - thanks for the excellent company 8-)

Thanks to everyone who turned up today and made it a great day of buelly hooliganism in the :sun: .
Nate and Mrs Nate, Jake and Mrs Jake (sorry ladies I forgot your names :oooops:but you certainly improved the already beautiful scenery ) Edd (sorry we lost ya), CJ we did wait at several spots and left you messages just incase. Norrie, Adam, Richie, Paulalig, Gus, Flossy and Mr flossy, hope I've not missed anyone.
Plenty of tuber tastic tarmac twisting :P
And the noise we made going thru them valleys was proper poetry :old: :worthy:
Did you notice with all them other bikes on the road we were not over taken once and caused a few Power rangers to wobble a bit as we roared on thru :dance: :dance:
AV IT! and AV some more.
Thanks folks :clap:
Rich
