WATCH THIS SPACE - COMING SOON!



Possibly overnight stay to then set off at sun up. Evo triangle, Top Gear classic roads etc. Put your name on the provisional list. Any road suggestions, places to stay welcome.

Is a Friday overnight OK for you?

Possibly if I can sort a pass.

If not, it’ll just been an early start. Wales is pretty easy for me to get to though.

I would be interested in joining, with or without a night over.

I’ll keep an eye on this thread. It depends upon the weather for me as I don’t drive my car in the wet because it’s just not fun. So I won’t commit to coming but would turn up for an early Sunday, I usually make a decision to go no more than 2 days before Sorry, that makes planning hard.

I'm with you on the weather. I think if everyone can do short notice and we can get a semi-reliable forecast for 5-7 days ahead, agree the date then. All up for that? yes/ nono?

Yes I’m very easy on availability. At the end of the day getting up early 5am and having a drive around Wales and getting home for 10 doesn’t really require any planning as it doesn’t impinge on family plans so I’m all for an ad hoc message on here a couple of days before along the lines of the below

" weather is looking great this Sunday, meet at Shrewsbury for 6am, getbyou back for 9am, see you there. If you’re late we leave without you"

Sounds like a plan - as per Crippo, I can do something like that and not get too much grief for missing out on family time etc.

I’m going to head out this weekend on an early run so if anyone fancies tagging along, you would be very welcome. I live in Cannock and I usually either do a Bala - Ffestiniog Route or something around Ludlow - Llanidloes, occasionally I whip upto Ruithin.
I leave early avoid the traffic and get home around 10.
Saturday is looking really Sunny but the traffic builds up earlier than Sunday but it might be nice to go Saturday. I’m open to opinions.
I also leave the house around 5:30 or earlier

Nice one. I’ll be in a VX220, there is a Shell garage opposite if you need fuel.
