LOMs mini tour, help please
Hello you lovely, helpful people. Due to JulesW and Luckypants (and others) posts in the The Good The Bad and The Ugly Pub and Cafe guide my better half and I are spending Easter weekend getting to know your wonderful area.
What I'd like is local knowledge. We will by necessity be using the M6 to avoid the urban conurbation around Manchester. So I'd like a route from the Motorway to Chirk near Wrexham. Then a 200/300 mile route for Saturday and another for Sunday. If any one would care to join us that would be even better. We are very much looking forward to this. Thanks in advance. |

Re: LOMs mini tour, help please
Hi LOM, sorry for not getting back to you sooner....
From the M6, I would get off the M6 at J18 Holmes Chapel and take the route below. Nice flowing roads that are not too busy, especially after Whitchurch. https://goo.gl/maps/dqjz6 For a rideout, do you want flowing two lane roads or quiet back roads or both? :D |

You cannot go wrong with the A483. Might be up there again tomorrow. Enjoy!

LOM - would you like...

Re: LOMs mini tour, help please
Yes please to all three, if you have the time. The Saturday route is now in the Garmin and I can add waypoints to it for places to stop. I have checked Google maps, BBR etc but there really is no substitute for local knowledge.
Many Thanks |

I'm stuck on a long conference call with work, so a little distraction is welcome!
Commentary on Saturday.
