Default Mid Wales Run 30th September

Following on from a previous thread I think we should now set a date and it's Sunday the 30th of September.

The plan is to start off in Merthyr Tydfil and then:

Up the A465 and get on to the Llangynidr Mountain Road and take several passes on this test road for Evo magazine, Top Gear and Fifth Gear

Up to Crickhowell top up with Shell V Power

Head back towards Brecon but turn off and take the twisting mountain road to Talgarth

Then head back down to Brecon and take the Lower and Upper Chapel road up to Builth Wells

From Builth Wells then head up to Rhayader and follow the road past the dams and head towards Cwmystwyth possibly going into Aberystwyth for a meal break

Back down towards Aberaeron, turn off in Llanrhystud and you all see if you can keep up with me over this peach of a road

Through Lampeter and head out towards Llanwrda (V Power stop on the way)

Down to Llangaddog and then head towards the Black Mountains Road

Several runs over the Black Mountains Road

Finish

From there it is easy enough to head back towards Merthyr Tydfil, Swansea, Bridgend and Cardiff areas.


Now get your names down.

I can't sorry as there are some peeps coming down from the Sarth Eest and we do this every year, sorry but it's either that or the 29th and more people will go on a Sunday.

I will organise another one before year end but it won't be so long due to the lack of daylight.

I appreciate as we are in your neck of the woods we might have to pay a tax to the local sheep ******** Mafia.

Those of us London boys that are 99% definites are:-

Myself - I'll be in (or should be if I still have it as I chop and change cars often) a Clio 197
Sean - JR supercharged ep3 civic type r
Dave - 62 plate (this will be its running in, lol) Audi A3 sportback s line 170 tdi

And those waiting to hear back from:-

Alex - DC2 Integra type r
Pat - big powered RX7
Jay - Clio 172 cup (itb'd)

Not so many of us this year unfortunately, but those of us who will be coming over are all up for another awesome day driving which has been an eagerly awaited yearly event for us for the last 4 years now! (Thanks to Ty!)

Now we both know that isn't the case, as French and quality should never be put in the same sentence.

We usually leave at 9am from Methyr Tydfil McD's at Cyfartha Retail Park and we should finish around 3-4pm if previous years are anything to go by.
