Your favourite road

[Drew Carey]

The A483 is good from newtown.....but found too many people on there in the good weather.

The A40 to Llandovery through the wooded section, time it right with no cars and its bliss.

The A483 from Llandovery to Buith.

Elan valley because of my memories.

The A38 as you can get from Bristol to Worcester in a similar time to the mway!!!!

Thousand sheep road of course.

There are too many to name to be honest.......even some quite tame roads can be fun as hell at the right times.

A6033 from Hebedn Bridge to Keighley at the moment. Generally fairly quiet, a bit short as a run, but as part of my commute it gets done twice a day, either hooning on the bike, giving it some beans in my MX5 or trunding along in the GV.

It has always reminded me of the mountain section of the TT, especially since I've been running over it at 7.15ish in the morning, with the mist over the top of **** Hill.

Yeah I know, I posted on the thread. It doesn't bother me TBH, I don't ride like an idiot, so speed changes won't affect me. Like I said, I bimble up there, usually as Dolly the sheep is sat on her back with her feet in the air halfway round a bend

Theres a nice little road, that starts at the Windfarm up the Withins, which has a pretty bumpy start but pans out into a nice little single track road and ends up on the Hebden/Keighley road. Used to have massive potholes on it, but its been filled a little now. Peg seems to like it for some reason!

From Kyle of Lochalsh --A890 to Strathcarron Station,then A896 to Kinlochewe,A832 up by Gairloch on to Ullapool [On a nice day]

Have just discovered the A417 from Hope-under-Dinmore (a few miles south of Leominster) to Gloucester.

It's OK

It's tricky because there are some amazing roads I've only done once or twice and I probably remember them with rose tinted specs, so I'll say two of my local roads.

The B4391 Bala over to the Tanat valley is excellent, I love the way it swoops into a 'secret valley' and snakes high long the valley sides.

But my local road that is at the bottom of my lane, the B5105, is my most favourite. It has everything, (including unmarked cars this weekend!). Always good to blow the cobwebs away on it, it take a concious effort not to turn onto it everytime (just 75% of the time ) I take the bike out.

So many roads, so little time. I have ones i like and they are all mosty technical very twisty type stuff. i get bored on sweepy roads.

Phil_247, Frilly Knickers, Mr S Hunter and I rode that a number of times this weekend. Amanda joined us on Sunday. It's a cracking road (that you don't need to know that well) to make progress on... it's a little bumpy in places.

I quite liked the A377 from Barnstaple to Crediton...

There are SO many good roads - I can't choose one, but I have to say I do see why the Breadboy went on and on about south Wales.
