Wales 2015 - Riding up from the Home Counties Friday AM
 
If anyone would like to join me from this part of the world, I'll be heading up from Buckinghamshire on Friday morning.

Haven't really picked a route yet but I imagine Oxford A40 to Burford, Worcestershire, Shropshire, North Wales, Colwyn and down the coast.

Looks about 7 hours (NO MOTORWAYS tyvm) with some stops along the way.


Anyone fancy joining?

Let me know your thoughts, locations or preferred routes.
I'm happy going in a group or going on my own.

Cheers, Steve.

Sounds good to me. I'll fit in with you Seedy, as long as the last bit is through Snowdonia mountains, a big must do!

Whatever suits you guys, I am totally flexible.

Jacques le Roux 22-04-15 08:32

How about 10 then. I love early morning for a ride

Jacques le Roux 22-04-15 09:27

My rough suggestions for starters (only A roads)
H Cafe (easy meet and good place to wait) - Abingdon - A34 - Witney - Burford - Cheltenham - Gloucester - A40 - Ross on Wye - A49 - Hereford - Leominster - A44 - Crossgates (near Llandrindad Wells) - Newtown - Welshpool - A483 - Blaenau Festiniog - A470 - Bewtsy Coed - A5 - Bangor - A55 - Conwy.
Have a look and modify if great places to stop or must ride roads not on here.

Jacques le Roux 22-04-15 09:36

Just google mapped the above route. Yikes, its 6.5 hours and 238 miles. Motorway chops 2+ hours off this. Should be ok though with an early start I guess.
