Yep the A487 at Bwlch Llyn Bach (Little Lake Pass). The view down to Tal-y-Llyn was spectacular today. :D

My kids go to Uni at Aberystwyth and that's on my way..... :cool: I like living here when it's sunny!

Ohhh great pic's by the way Kwak. Looks like the run up Bwlch-y-Hirnant (up to Vyrnwy) was beautiful as ever. Had a blast home and did not need fuel.... light started flashing at 160 miles.... Did about 185 in total.

the roads up there are getting worse everytime i go there, gravel and rubble bits everywhere gaz (cuz) wasnt too happy he dont like gravel roads.
glad to hear you got home on one tank of fuel, i topped up 3 times £21 of fuel abouts to do 240 miles. on the M54 on the way home me and gaz sat at about 70 - 90 mph it was quite windy but we never saw big dave and martin again christ knows what speeds they were up to;)

Well to start with I thought he was being rude, but then saw you were used to that, so went off with him.

kwak zzr 10-04-07 04:44 PM

Re: our wales ride.
 
ME rude :) narr cuz aint passed his test long and rides slower on the welsh twistys so we have an understanding that if you want a blast just go go go! and pull over somewhere up the road for others to catch up :)

Jelster 10-04-07 05:00 PM

Re: our wales ride.
 
Hmm, I like the look of that area, have to organise a "long" Sunday ride and perhaps meet you peeps.

If I left at about 7:30 I could make the Ponderosa for lunch, maybe an hour or so in the "Vallies" and then make my way back to London....

If I could get a couple of mates would you guys be up for that ?

kwak zzr 10-04-07 05:02 PM

Re: our wales ride.
 
yep! yep! yep! just give me the nod, long day for you tho jelster.

Just over 500 miles... Leave at 7:30, Ponderosa for 11:30, back in for 18:00'ish. That's a FireBlade riders "run out" :)

Luckypants 10-04-07 05:22 PM

Re: our wales ride.
 
Might be better for you to meet at dinky's like I did. That way you get to do 'real roads' an hour sooner. Make a big circle around to arrive back Welshpool way before heading off. Might give more time on twisties and less time on M-way?

I'm up for that too, given enough notice. I could easily meet at Ponderosa lunch time.

Dinkies looks a wee further a field, but if Luckypants can make it I'm sure I can :D
