There is a Shell in Betws-y-coed. Rather handily, this is just about at one corner of the Evo triangle!

There are quite a few optimax garages in north wales, two on Anglesea for example that we should get close to. I am sure (hope) the guys setting the route have taken this into consideration.

See you all sunday
chris.
I'll be at the services on the M56 (these are the ones that are on the east bound carriageway only iirc - but you can get to them from the junction from east or west bound) at about 10AM Sunday.

Wife, two of the 3 carpet rats and the Scoob.

Cya then.

Can't believe I've missed another event due to being horribly sick.

Hope it was a good one for one and all though

good day frank, thanks for that. The smacs were getting a bit restless at the end, hence the reason why we shot off on our own
Wish I lived closer to those roads, as they are fantastic, and yet again, not a police camera in sight
A big thanks also to supertourings missus, who had all our kids for the day so we could go play, thanks bridgette I owe you big time
I'll post up some piccys and some footage off the video later, when I've got the kids to bed,
chris.
