Default Wales ride to Caernarfon 26th March

Right i've well and truly got the bug for welsh roads after Eds ride on monday so am planning on doing something like this next time i'm over that way

Start out at Ruthin
B5105 I keep hearing about
B4501 and quick stop in Bala
Back down the A4212 until B4391
A470
A487
B4410
A4085 to Caernarfon and stop somewhere near the castle for lunch and photies

Then A4086 (1 of the few roads I do know in wales, love the scenery) and A5, stopping at Conwy Falls cafe for a drink. Then home from there somehow.

Only weekend i'm free for a while is Saturday 26th March so no poll i'm afraid anyone care to join me? All are welcome, i'll have the gopro in tow again so get practicing your wheelies and kneedown....

If anyones free on a weekday (preferably mondays or fridays) and fancies a trial run,I'm sure I could be persuaded to give the office a wide berth

Just possibly up for joining you at some point en route on the 26th. Will have to see how things are (bit overloaded with college work atm!)

Hmm sounds very tempting, weather permitting I think I'll pop along, I've taken the liberty of preparing a visual aid for those who need such things (Me)

Hope I got the route right but I take no responsibility if I screwed up so someone please point it out!

Quite a few roads I haven't ridden yet too which sounds good to me.

Useful, but Google maps always sends you down a little single track to cut off a corner at the junction of B4391 and the A470 so not quite right. Probably won't make a difference on the ride as you just 'follow your nose' on the B4391 to the A470, then hang a left.
