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

Looking forward to this lots, who's meeting up on Thursday at Chester Holiday Inn, me and t'other 'alf will be there probably between 8 and 9pm
Me and Jon will be meeting at Chester Holiday Inn on Thursday

Re: The North Wales Run - AO does the EVO Triangle
Could be on for Friday. At the moment I'm off (Saturday too), but things are a little fluid at work. 2 sickies and a retirement leaves us a little short on hours...may be called in!!!

Anyone got the meeting point/route for a garmin nuvi?

If not a start address will do, that OK Diner sounds a good 'un. Used to have two near here (ones a KFC the other a nice Indian), enjoyed their coffee refills and club sandwiches.

I did the Lake District in the Mundano, all I could think is "I wish I was in the Alfa"

Not a bad idea.. Who fancies an extra 90-odd kilos in their car for these nice twisty Welsh roads? If I sit in the back you might get some seriously nice oversteer

Not me.


If you get in the back of Happy Man's car, with the noise it makes, you'll think you're in a taxi!!

If you bring a sack of spuds you could sit next to me to help balance the car......always understeers on left handers.
