I'd prefer to attend if it was anywhere south.

Rains a lot in Wales dont it?

And i cant do northern accents... and all us soft suthern ****es are bound to be the sore thumbs if its ooop narth aint we?

Anyway, i'll keep an eye on this and when everyone has decided i'll see if i can tag along.

I really should be spending time finding a job.... not dreamin of miles of sunny roads on my bike

Going up to Aberystwyth is good, and it really isn't far.
I've been up there for one night of drinking more than once, then come back midday the following day.

Out of term time is better in that there won't be many students in the pubs (the year ends a bit into June) Students are scum, btw.

There are a few places to camp up there and loads of B+Bs, etc.

Oh, and if you've never seen Devil's Bridge, it's worth going.
Not what I'd call spectacular, but it is nice.

Where is the option for anywhere, but Wales. The police there don't like me.

I always speed in Wales, often past the heddlu, I've never even been stopped.
It's only when you start taking the **** (or go too far into Powys)

I voted Scotland because I know the roads are great but I'm easy

Wales sounds good too I have a couple of friends there
