Default New meet & generous offer by landlord...

I've considered posting this for some time, but I figure the benefits outweigh the negitives. So here goes...

I've found out about a new bike meet here on Anglesey, the only bad thing for most people here is that it's on a Wednesday evening, so it clashes with BP meets.

Personally, it gives me more choice. If I want to get out of the house on a wednesday evening, I've now got the choice of doing the distance to the Farmers or going to the one on the island. I don't see that as a bad thing TBH.

Anyway, the meet is at Y Bodol, which is here, and starts 9pm. You can't miss it if you follow the A5025 from Menai Bridge/Four Crosses towards Amlwch.

The generous offer I spoke of, well...

At the meets there's free food laid on by the landlord (sandwhich type buffet). Additionally to that, anyone wanting a ride on a sunny sunday, turn up at Y Bodol for a free coffee & a chat with other bikers about where you want to go as a group!

Even better, the landlord has graciously offered free camping to anyone on a bike. At any time of year, be that racing at Trac Mon, or you just want to come & do tourist type things in North Wales.

Oh, and I'm told the bacon butties are unimaginably good.

Yup, but don't get him excited about the free food. As far as I know it's only sarnies on weds evenings that are free (other than the coffee on sunday morning).

Don't be expecting steaks!

How much is the ferry across to the island?


I'm guessing there's a free bridge?

Nil, nada, nothing, zilch! There are two (toll free) road bridges.

Sounds a good meet, there seem to be a few more coming out the wood work. I still not been up to check out the one at The Moors (ohh it's tonight! Might get my ass in gear!)

I echo those sentiments, only substitute YC with Miss Ophic, of course! Free camping in wales can't be bad

Well we keep meaning to go up that way anyway, and with me being in mid-Wales for only a little longer, it should be sooner rather than later!

Sounds like a decent offer... Think the wednesday night may be a bit far for me... But like a few have said... Weekend camping sounds fun.
