Shrewsbury this afternoon
Riding into Shrewsbury this afternoon to take one of my daughters to the hairdresser (that'll work well with a crash helmet!) and then to her gymnastics club at the Grange. Anyone about wanting to meet up for a tea or coffe?

Re: Shrewsbury this afternoon
Next time then John.
Journey in was grim. Accident on the A458 between Heniarth corner and Cyfronnydd, Llanfair Caereinon completely gridlocked! Traffic completely at a standstill and backed up in all directions as everyone is diverted up the little lane at Cyfronnyd and along the back road to Llanfair. Then a massive queue of traffic on the Welshpool to Shrewsbury road. Cars, camper vans, lorries, all headed by some dopey fekwit 2hat in a snot green Fiat van car type thing doing 35ph. Everyone else largely travelling too close together for a safe overtake. Must have been 40 vehicles or more in the queue. Dull witted tool passed several places he could have pulled over but didn't. Grrrrrrr....... |

Re: Shrewsbury this afternoon
My journey up was not much fun thanks to dawdlers and endless roadworks on the A40. Bit better after Crickhowell but did not get more than five miles on uninterrupted sweeping curves before I was stuck again. Traffic levels have gotten far worse since I last did that route ten years ago.
Heading back tomorrow on a different route but I just know that as it's a Sunday I will encounter so many cyclists and annoyed car drivers (heat and their reaction to cyclists) I may be in for a rubbish run. |
Re: Shrewsbury this afternoon
I must confess that I try not to go out joyriding on a weekend. I also try not to cross the border into England as traffic levels are noticeably worse than in Wales on the whole.

Re: Shrewsbury this afternoon
I shall be going back a different way I think. Either the road through Coedway and Four Crosses to Llansantffraid, or the Minsterley road up through Westbury and the little lanes over Long Mountain.
