MM2 9th May 2009

9 May was the most popular date (sorry Mark and Hovis) so that is the date of the ride. Leaving Shrewsbury Services (roundabout A5/A49, south side of Shrewsbury) at 10am.

Route is:

• A5 west to A488 roundabout - this is only a mile or two but it's a fast mile or two
• A488 headed generally south, through Bishop's Castle, Clun and Knighton, to the A44 at Pen-y-Bont.
• A44 to the Cross Gates cafe - this is about a mile, it's on the roundabout of the A44 with the A483 near Rhayader. Stop for coffee etc.
• A44 east to Leominster. This is a fantastic road, lots of twisties. There is a double hairpin included.
• A4112 through Leominster town centre to the OK diner on the roundabout with the A49. Stop for lunch.
• B4361 through Luston and Richards Castle to Ludlow.
• A4117/B4364 to Bridgnorth and the bike cafe at Quatt on the A442.
• Depending on time:
• EITHER the B4368 to Craven Arms and the A49 back to Shrewsbury
• OR the A442/A458 back to Shrewsbury if we're getting short on time.

It's a fantastic ride. Even if it rains
