Having tried to work out which stages I wanted to marshal/radio on, I've come up with the following Excel spreadsheet - I hope it helps you in planning your stages.

has anyone who has bought a wrc pass planned a route to see more stages than an event pass allows but still allowing enough time to make it onto the stage in time (allowing for traffic and car parking) and without missing the great car park capers? if so could you let me know, 1)so i can copy yours and not bother myself or 2) if you haven't i'll plan one and let you know.

I have one of the event passes (Brechfa A, Resolfen J1, Halfway O, Resolfen K2 and Rhondda U) as well as the Rheola G single pass for Friday. I put together schedules for each day, based on conservative drive time (averaging less than 40mph) and allowing at least 1 hour to get from the car park to the stage at each stage. I'm staying near Swansea. I put the docs on my website:

Hope that helps a bit.

Looking at the maps.......
Rheola car park "F" is straight opposite Resolfen car park "L".
Thats the way it is on the map anyway...... I know the A465 is a dual carriageway, but i can't beleve it is more than 20 miles to find a turning round point.

I was using Multimap, and Ordnance Survey to get my mileages - however that doesn't show things like dual-carriageway junctions that only allow you to go one way etc.
Do you have some local knowledge to impart for getting from Resolfen J (Tonmawr) to Rheola G (near Crynant)? Looks to me like you take the B4287 northwest to the A4230 east to the A4109 north.
Of course I'm sitting about 5500 miles away from Wales right now, so I could be talking complete bollox.

Maybe you could use the "route planner" on the AA motoring site at http://www.theaa.com/travelwatch/planner_main.jsp
Just enter your start and destination and it works out the distance and average time. Could be useful to you.

WOT I SUGGEST IS.............FIND SOMEONE WHO HAS KNOWLEDGE OF THESE SAID ROADS,MAKE SURE THEY HAVE THE SAME PASS AS YOU,AND ASK THEM IF YOU CAN TAG ALONG,I'M SURE THEY WONT MIND..........TEZ
