Back home, what a ride my brain is slightly scrambled from all the fantastic roads! I liked the B5105 out of Ruthin but was expecting more 2bh. Then I got on the B4391...WOW is all I can say why was I not told about this road!

Only slight downer was whilst bimbling along the B4410 enjoying the scenery a guy on a KTM 950 comes roaring up behind me and the traffic infront. Once I got past the cars hes right up my chuff so decided to have a little fun with him.....2 minutes later his bike was adorning the welsh countryside. Completely lost it on a right hander and went straight on. I did a u-ey and went back to help, he wasnt very appreciative to say the least learn to ride then ya feckin tool

And got a shake of the head from the tunnel police on the way back, dont think they appreciated my loud pipes. So think I ticked all the boxes for a good day out

Yeah just me Quiff, 1st decent ride I've had on my duke. 225 miles. I now ache like a b@stard

Weather could have been better but the sun was out round caernarfon way, and main thing it was dry ktm guy was fine bar the very bruised ego, crash bungs saved most of the damage. He was chunnering away to himself, made sure he was ok and the bike was still rideable. Ignored my advice to chill at the roadside for a bit and promptly fecked off at the same speed that got him in trouble in the 1st place! Meh takes all sorts I spose

Didnt ruin my day

There was no thankyou, I could/should have left him in the hedge he obviously doesnt appreciate how hard it is to do a u turn on them bloody things either!

He was just f-ing and jeffing alot, not particuarly aimed at me. Kept saying he'd only had it a few weeks, as if it was somehow my fault? he was starting to annoy me at this point so I asked if he was local, said he was and asked if I was.....said nope, 1st time i've seen this road. at which point he threw on his lid and ****ed off

Think secretly he was annoyed because I looked better in my power rangers outfit than he did, the fat git

The 4391 is a stormer isn't it? Knocks the spots off the A4212 as far as I'm concerned ( although that bend around the end of Llyn Celyn is a good one!)
