My brother in law and a few of he's mate's are doing a week trip around Wales in July and I've signed up for at least 4 day's and just thought I'd put it out there so if anyone fancy's joining there more than welcome. There booking ponderosa in march for the first night and that's as far as it's got at the moment.
-
I have that Wales itch again too. I'll need to scratch it (pun intended) at some point this year, but I'll just watch the forecast and book somewhere to stay for a few days at the last minute. There's a hotel I stayed at before in Beddgelert; might use that one again for Snowdonia, then find somewhere else further south for a couple more days.
-
I'm always up for a Welsh jaunt. I'll keep a close look at this thread.
-
I'm not going with dazza. That boy's insane :lol
-
Yep i camped in the rain again last year and swore its b and b from now on.Better let Slimwilly know Dazzers on his way :) .
-
:eek .....No need to worry lads, I've calmed right down since getting the MT10 :b
Actually, Wales is a bit of a dilemma. You want the Fazer for the trip down but need it to morph into the MT10 when you're there.....Oh, what to do ? :think
-
Bring them both Dazza,, or ride one up and get train back,,i can play with your MT10 for a while.
I look forward to you all appearing in Wales , I will hunt you down :evil
Of course if we have a spare bed or lawn you are welcome to stop or call in for Tea
-
Cheers slimm be good to meet up again I'll post it up as I find out when and where
-
OK were be leaving on the 29th June and will try to book ponderosa next month for the first night .not sure what's happening after that just wing it.
-
Question I know the Ponderosa do B&B but do they have a bar in the B&B bit ? I have been to the Ponderosa many times. Let's face it on tour after a hard days riding one would want a beer or 3. As far as I know the closest pub to the there would be the Britannia Inn?
-
i agree definitely need a drink after a days ride so ill be taking my own lol and hopefully the rest of the stop overs will have a bar and if dazza's coming im sure he'll bring a bottle of red wine. ive heard hes partial :rollin

:lol Fuck that red wine,never drink the stuff unless we happen across probably the only pub in England that doesn't sell cider or anything else I like.....couldn't you tell , was it that obvious ? :lol
-
Ordering it by the pint was the giveaway :lol
-
Just to let anyone know who's interested were booking room's for ponderosa 29th June before there fully booked
-
That looks great, know that area well as my parents moved to Gresford many years ago & my youngest brother lives in Minera, not a million miles from Ponderosa. Great roads, hope you have great weather too 👌
-
Really? I love riding with him, fast but safe 👌 and I only have a Fazer8 after having an R1 for ten years which did everything from track days to touring lol 💞
I'm not going with dazza. That boy's insane :lol
-
Week tomorrow fingers crossed for dry weather.
-
4 of us have booked a holiday cottage on Anglesey from Sat 1st July. Havent been on the island since the early 80s-how time flies!
Hope weather looks favourably on us but wouldnt mind it being a bit cooler than current heat wave.
Intend exploring Snowdonia/N Wales coast while up there.

Seeing as you did the Elan Valley and Lake Vy...whatever ( :rolleyes ), you might like a couple of other smaller roads (assuming you haven't already done them):
1. From Beulah, take the B4358 to Newbridge-on-Wye; proper little rollercoaster, slimwilly first showed me this one.
2. From Rhayader, take the B4518 to Llanidloes.
3. From Llanidloes, carry on along the B4518 past Llyn Clywedog, then turn left for Dylife - brings you out at Machynlleth.
4. If you follow the A490 north from Welshpool, you come to the A495; turn right, then immediately left onto the A490/B4391 to Bala.
5. From Bala, take the A4212 to Trawsfynydd. Alternatively, turn right onto the B4391 after the big U around the lake end, for Ffestiniog.
Those are some of my favourites, more for scenery, but still good twisty rides.
-
Did the Elan Valley to Devil's bridge and Aberystwyth on Sunday and again today. I love those B Roads. Most of the time you've got the roads to yourself. :woot
-
Cheers for the suggestion we did some of those road's but I'll give the others a go when I take the wife next month :thumbup can't get over what a beautiful place ito is.
