Who's up for driving the EVO triangle and some other fine roads in North Wales

It's being done on the friday to help make sure that the roads are clearer than they would be at the weekend


Meeting at Chester at 10.00am - Meet Point to be advised.

Then off on a tour of some of the finest roads North Wales has to offer including the fabled EVO triangle.

The route will take around 4 hours and we will be stopping for lunch along the way.


For those with sat-nav: I will be providing itinerary files of the route, so if you can PM me with your e-mail address and sat-nav type I'll send you the file,
I can do TomTom, Garmin and Navman

This event is being organised by JonSpiderMan from AOSW

UPDATE

Meeting point be here by 10:00am
Meet point linky

The Route

The latest Route avoiding road works

PM Jon if you want him to send it to you

Re: The North Wales Run - AO does the EVO Triangle
Just a quick question for Jon about the TomTom Itinerary; Are we using the fastest route or the shortest route?

Re: The North Wales Run - AO does the EVO Triangle
Has anybody given any thought to the music they will have on during the run?

Bit random I know, but it all goes towards making a good drive into a great drive IMHO.

I have. I don't tend to listen to music when I'm driving in a 'spirited' manner as I find it a little off-putting. I prefer to listen to the sound of the engine.

Wireless One will do for the motorway stretches.

Jay-Z - Show me what you got - Weird as you'd think rock or maybe a bit of trance would be better but it came on when I was on a run recently and it just sounds right! It's on the playlist

Also looking at some of the corners on some of the roads I may have to dig the Matt Monroe album out!
