If you are over A5 after Llangollen and after the A494 turn for Bala. There is a cracking run across the top on the A543 twds Llansannan. Check it out, it is definitely the best road I have found in N.Wales. Very empty, very twisty, very fast.
Are those photos of Llanberis road?
Sad question I know, but i have to travel those roads every day, and get paid for doing so!!!!!! Tough life eh?

Nope, and all three photos are tens of miles apart!
You will have to join us next week if you want to find out more

Mellow,
i have spoken to some of the local farmers, and they can arrange a tractor-tow up some of the steeper sections if you need it.
Oh, and there is some octane-boost available that should allow your fuel to burn with an exothermic reaction
Now where did i leave those elastic bands??

The ball and chain is massive at the mo'. I honestly don't think its a goer as supposed to be visiting future-in-laws in London.
Still trying to escape to the valleys though!
Hmmmmm, that open road..............

Final pub-stop confirmed - check!
Function room in said pub booked - check!
Final sections of roads thoroughly tested (at least two or three times) - check!
Mileages sent to Charlie Whiskey for compilation - check!

A load of brilliant roads not on the actual route also thoroughly tested (gotta think of future WCTs!) - check!
Food in-take of cajun chicken, surf&turf, plus a couple of steaks on baguettes enjoyed - check!
