Hi there,

I'm putting together a roadtrip taking in some of Wales's finest roads between Friday 9th - Monday 12th May 2014.

There's currently a few 911's (inc. 2x GT3's) and a number of Caterham's, but everyone's welcome, the more the merrier.

Let me know if you're interested.

Tom

P.S. This is a re-post of this thread but wanted to post in events rather than just Caterham forum ( http://www.pistonheads.com/gAssing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Just a tip as at you stop point at elan valley/rhyadir you be mental to miss out on the road through the reseviors then up over to devils bridge miss out the a470 and use that road, there is a car park at devils bridge overlooking a very deep water fall and a stall that does stunning ice cream just done a run over there on sunday normally very quiet and it's like a mini nurburgring.

We're planning on camping all three nights, but you're welcome to find your own accommodation if you're not up for camping?

I'm not with your tour. I'll be doing one the week before. Have you booked mobile homes or will you be in tents? Can't see the weather being that great in Wales in mid May. Good luck to you though and have fun.
