Ok then Blackberry, Here Goes!   Would anyone be interested in a weekender? 19, 20 21st August,  Plan is as follows!   Arrive friday 19th August Pm or sat AM, Camping available with toilets, Pub 5 mins walk (accom available there also) Saturday: Leave at 10 ish for a ride out down south! breathtaking roads and scenery including cafe stops at LLandovery and Pub ( pre arranged for a cuppa) in Pontrhydygroes, then Elan valley to finish (all of it this time!) back to camp for about 5 ish and at 9 that night band and beer at the local Pub ( my band sorry)   Sunday The North!!!: 10-1030 start Machynlleth over the staylittle pass, Aberdyfi, tywyn, on to dolgellau, Bala then return over to welshpool via the most stunning roads and either depart home from welshpool ( easy for north and midlands) or have another night at the camp and pub!   I love ride outs so that is what this weekend is all about,there is no charge for the camping as it is on my mates land (he's a biker too!) But would probably be a fiver or so each to get a mobile loo on site!   If demand is high we will split into more managable groups everyone will have a map and directions, Phone numbers etc and i can do your route on your sat nav for you if you have one! I'll see if i can get it onto the events page Hint Hint Sandy!!!                                                                                                                                                                               

Do these places sell mint choc chip ice cream per chance lol                                                                                                                                                                              

Sounds like a good one TDO .. guess I should get brushing up on my single track mountain roads                                                                                                                                                                              

Your band eh !!!! might be worth it just to be able to point and laugh at you lol                                                                                                                                                                              

oh BLX!! me & spesh are having our own mega ride out to South of Spain those dates. Hope you all have a good un                                                                                                                                                                              

That sounds brill DO
I can't say for definate, depending on the work situation...but I'll definately keep it in mind.                                                                                                                                                                             

Wel it dosn't matter 5 bikes or 50! there are so many places that you'd probably never see , roads you'd usually pass by, and weekends for the beer and relaxing / sandcastles etc, so i thought a weekend where the riding is the focus might be a refreshing change!   The routes i have planned take us through some of the most glorious scenic places and an emphasis on photo opportunities and a "stately " riding pace with PLENTY of ice cream stops!!! Might even include an ice cream factory!! Whatever, it'll just be nice to play host to some of you!
